Brief summary

This study aim to prospectively evaluate the neuropsychiatric symptoms of patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus by a standardized neuropsychiatric examination : the global CASE scale (Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Encephalitis), and the prevalence of disturbances of consciousness, focal neurological deficit, cognitive impairment, headache, anosmia, sleep disturbances, impaired autonomic nervous system and peritraumatic stress.

Interventions

OTHERNEURO +

The participants will undergo several questionnaires after their classic clinical evaluation allowing to determine the Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Encephalitis (CASE) score : * The dissociative peri-traumatic experiences questionnaire (Birmes et al., 2005) * the Peri traumatic distress inventory (Jehel et al., 2005) * and the Shortness, Trembling, Racing, Sweating (STRS) (Bracha et al., 2004) Neuro + patients will also have a Brain MRI, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, EEG, as well as an ambulatory sleep recording and electromyography depending on the symptoms observed.

MeasureTime frameDescription
percentage of patients in the Neuro + and Neuro- groupsBaseline T0 : inclusion visitThe percentage is deducted from the score on a global scale by the Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Between 0 and 1, patients will be classified in the Neuro group, if this score is greater than or equal to 2, patients will be classified in the Neuro + group.
