Olfactory function assessment results
Overall, 44 patients (61.1%) reported having or having had olfactory
disorders during SARS-CoV-2 infection. The alterations reported include
complete anosmia (34 patients), hyposmia (8 patients) and disosmia (2
patients). Table 4 summarizes the olfactory function assessment results
[Table 4]. At the time of the examination, based on the CCCRC scores
obtained, complete anosmia was detected in 2 cases (2.8%), 58 patients
presented variable degree hyposmia (80.6%) while in 12 cases (16.7%)
the olfactory function was normal. Twenty-eight patients, who
subjectively reported complete olfactory recovery, discordantly
presented mild (18 cases) or moderate (10) hyposmia in the CCCRC test.
