Abstract

Many infectious diseases still have medical and social significance, the late detection and untimely treatment of which causes persistent health disorders, leading to early disability. Drug therapy has significantly reduced mortality among people on the background or after infections, increasing the duration and quality of life. However, lesions of the nervous system in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), viral hepatitis, new coronavirus and other infections, and related neurocognitive disorders cause great concern, are accompanied by complex and clinically important problems.The authors conducted an analytical review of publications and their own research based on the experience of implementing cognitive training in neurocognitive rehabilitation programs that have proven their effectiveness for patients with cognitive disorders against the background of socially significant infections and comorbid conditions.
