Resumo

Objetivo: Apresentar as características e os fatores prognósticos da anosmia e hiposmia em pacientes infectados com COVID-19 em uma cidade no Brasil. Métodos: Estudo transversal através de contato telefônico, foi realizada uma pesquisa com questionário pré-estabelecido em uma população de 80 pacientes. Resultados: Entre os 80 participantes da pesquisa, 66,3% eram do sexo feminino. 90% relataram anosmia e 10% relataram hiposmia. 5% dos entrevistados evoluíram o quadro com internação hospitalar. 5% dos pacientes realizaram tratamento, sendo ele a terapia olfatória. Destes pacientes, 75% consideraram a terapia olfatória como um tratamento efetivo. Conclusões: O maior número de disfunção olfatória foi encontrado na menor faixa etária e em mulheres, variáveis associadas a um melhor prognóstico. A perda olfatória está relacionada com um curso mais brando da doença e consequentemente a um menor número de hospitalizações. Evidências apontam a terapia olfatória como um tratamento promissor.
