脑膜炎是严重的中枢神经系统感染性疾病,既可导致局灶性神经损害、脑积水等器质性损伤，又可引起认知功能改变。记忆功能作为言语、学习等高级认知功能的基础,其损伤会使患者学业发展受阻,生活、工作受限。本文从短时记忆和长时记忆2方面讨论了脑膜炎后患者的记忆功能受损与恢复情况,其中疾病严重程度、年龄、病原体种类等是影响记忆功能损伤程度的重要因素。

Meningitis is a serious infectious disease of the central nervous system that can cause both organic damage such as focal neurological damage and hydrocephalus, as well as changes in cognitive function. The impairment of memory function, which is the basis of higher cognitive functions such as speech and learning, can hinder patients ' academic development and limit their lives and work. This paper discuss the damage and recovery of memory function in patients after meningitis from both short term memory and long term memory, in which the severity of the disease, age, and type of pathogen are important factors affecting the degree of memory function damage.
