The Utility of Blood Based Biomarkers in Detecting Neurological Complications of COVID‐19 in Critically Ill Patients

Neurological and neuropsychiatric complications have been documented in patients with COVID‐19. This study aims to investigate the utility of two neurological blood‐based biomarkers to predict neurological complications and mortality due to COVID‐19 in the intensive care unit (ICU). Neurofilament light (NF‐L) is a marker of axonal damage and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is a marker of astrocytic activation.
