Overview
Assessment of Needs
The recognition of the neurologic complications of COVID-19 is evolving rapidly. Headache, myalgia, loss of smell, and taste were early recognized symptoms, followed by identification of ischemic stroke, altered mental status, and other neurologic syndromes. More light will be shed on the fuller constellation of neurologic sequelae of COVID-19, and potential pathogenesis of central nervous system and peripheral nervous system complications will be addressed. Finally, critical review of existing reports will identify gaps in knowledge and areas of controversy that need to be resolved before management recommendations can be definitively established.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this webinar, learners will be able to:
- List the neurologic complications that are currently known to occur in people with COVID-19
- Describe the possible pathogenesis, severity, and course of these complications

Conflicts of Interest
In the interest of maintaining the independence of its CME activities, and in accordance with the policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the IAS–USA requires all persons with control of content (eg, faculty, IAS–USA Board members, and program staff) to disclose any financial relationships that they or their spouses or partners have had with commercial companies within the past 12 months. Any real or apparent conflicts of interest of those parties are resolved prior to the CME activity being delivered. Individuals who refuse to disclose financial interests may not participate in an IAS–USA CME activity.
The ACCME defines a commercial interest as “any entity producing, marketing, re-selling, or distributing health care goods or services consumed by, or used on, patients. The ACCME does not consider providers of clinical service directly to patients to be commercial interests – unless the provider of clinical service is owned, or controlled by, an ACCME-defined commercial interest.”
