Introduction
The typical complications considered in the paper include cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory, and vascular thrombosis-related complications.

Aim of the research
To analyse the complications induced by COVID-19.

Material and methods
The authors performed a thorough systematic review in databases related to COVID complications, as well as scientific articles and publications. The analysis focused on original research on post-COVID-19 complications, which was an inclusion criterion. Among the papers selected for analysis were surveys that involved patients who had undergone COVID-19 infection and related complications. Many papers were cross-sectional studies. Most studies used the PAPI questionnaire, which is the most common research method when quantitative techniques are concerned. The studies were analysed using a meta-analysis involving a PRISMA method.

Results
The studies indicated a correlation between the incidence of COVID-19 and the complications that arose from it.

Conclusions
The results obtained suggest multifaceted monitoring of post-COVID-19 complications in the longer term.
