Overview

Anosmia has been formally recognized as a characteristic symptom of COVID-19 infection, and may be the most common sign of infection due to this virus.[1]

The extent of potential olfactory dysfunction due to COVID-19 is still unclear.[2]

Historical Perspective

Classification

  • There is no established system for the classification of COVID-19 associated anosmia.

Pathophysiology

Causes

Human strains of coronavirus (HCoVs) can infect and spread through the olfactory bulb.[10][1]

Now in day, more than 200 types of viruses are identified to cause anosmia; coronavirus strains (7 of them) are responsable of 10-15% of the cases.[1][13][2]

Differentiating COVID-19-associated anosmia from other Diseases

Anosmia due to COVID-19 infection may present indenticaly as other anosmias from upper respiratory viral infections.

Risk Factors

Screening


Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis

Anosmia related to COVID-19, typically has a duration of 8.96 days.[2][36]

Approximately 98% of patients with anosmia related to COVID-19 recover within 28 days.[2][36]

Diagnosis

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Olfactory function test (OFT) has been the study of choice for diagnosis of anosmia and olfactory dysfunction.[37][2][3][38]

In many studies, full olfactory function tests have been disregarded.[2]

Self-administered olfactory function tests can help the early detection of COVID-19 and isolation.[2][41]
