Manifestaciones gastrointestinales en el sindrome post covid agudo: Revisión de la literatura y su impacto en la actualidad

Abstract

Post-COVID-19 (or acute post-COVID) syndrome is characterized by the persistence or prolongation of symptoms for more than 4 weeks after the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection. The prevalence of post- COVID-19 syndrome ranges from 10% to 87% in patients who had COVID-19. This syndrome was initially dismissed by many, but is now recognized as a multiorgan disease, reflecting a constant challenge in medical care. There are neuropsychiatric factors that, associated with the inflammation of the digestive tract and the activation of the enteric nervous system, are the potential mechanisms for the development of acute Post-COVID Gut-Brain Interaction Disorder (GBID).
