Abstract

Introduction: This case study showcases the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly its neurological manifestations, which include anosmia, ageusia, adynamia, confusion, altered consciousness and alterations in cerebral circulation, which can lead to sequelae such as ischemic stroke (CVD).

Objective: To apply specialized interventions and actions to a patient with a SARS-CoV-2-related ischemic stroke (CVD) based on Dorothea Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory.

Materials and Methods: A neurological assessment of the patient was conducted through the use of an assessment tool developed by Neurological Nursing postgraduate students based on the universal self-care deficits proposed by Dorothea Orem. A holistic follow up was maintained, and care was provided in line with specific intervention plans for the presented alterations.

Description of the clinical case: Patient diagnosed with (CVD) ischemic stroke of the left-middle cerebral artery. Due to the patient’s health condition at the time of the application of the assessment instrument, the acquisition of data was supported by the responsible person through their informed consent.

Relevance: COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection, is characterized by the virus’ affinity to ACE2 receptors present throughout the human body. Due to the multiple receptors of this type it retains, the brain portrays specific symptoms. This leads to neurological conditions that, depending on the the severity of the disease, could result in lasting sequelae on the infected person.

Conclusions: Due to the specialized care they provide in the process of stabilization and recovery, nursing personnel plays a critical role in the care of individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2
