Brain fog mayy affect cognitive clarity, attention and memory and although has been studied as part of various conditions over the years, it has gained more attention following the COVID-19 pandemic, due to its high prevalence among individuals with Post COVID-19 Condition (PCC). In this presentation we will share preliminary findings of an online survey to investigate whether individuals diagnosed with Post COVID-19 Condition (PCC) report significantly more brain fog symptoms, compared to those without PCC, or related difficulties.Preliminary findings align with a wider body of literature suggesting greater mental fatigue, cognitive difficulties and inattentiveness among those diagnosed with PCC.

Learning Objectives:

Upon completion participants will be able to describe the impact of brain fog on individuals with Post COVID-19 Condition
Upon completion participants will be able to list 3-5 key symptoms of brain fog in PCC
Upon completion participants will be able to demonstrate an understanding of how brain fog affects individuals with PCC, relative to those without the condition
