View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Some COVID-19 survivors may have respiratory and mental health sequelae, especially those who required hospitalization. The investigators hypothesize that the participation of a rehabilitation program composite by home-based respiratory physiotherapy and telephone-based psychological support will improve respiratory function, quality of life, and psychological status in severe COVID-19 patients.

Detailed Description

In Peru, almost one million persons have survived COVID-19 and initial reports indicate that could exist long-term health damage. This study aims to assess the efficacy of a 6-week rehabilitation program following hospital discharge for patients who had severe COVID-19. The program includes 12 sessions of home-based respiratory therapy that the patient will carry out with a physiotherapist and 7 sessions of telephone-based psychological support bring by a psychologist.
