Brief Summary:
This is a randomized controlled trial of the efficacy of a tailored exercise program, based on multicomponent exercise training and/or inspiratory muscle training, compared to the WHO self-management leaflet commonly used in outpatient scenarios, on the recovery of persistent symptoms and functional limitations after COVID-19.
. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of a tailored exercise-based treatment relative to the control arm in improving the subject clinical status in ambulatory patients.
Detailed Description:
A fraction \~10% of the COVID-19 patients who undergo a variable acute symptomatic phase of the disease are coming forward with continuing effects of the disease over a month, with chronic complaints like mental fog, delayed latent periods in recalling events of recent past, tachycardia, extreme fatigue, inability to perform daily physical tasks and likely to develop stress, depression, irritability, insomnia, fear, confusion, anger and frustration. This condition is defined as post-COVID-19 syndrome and increasingly affecting a high number of people as the pandemic evolves.
The post-COVID-19 syndrome has become a usual situation in the evolutionary course of the disease with its own entity. The National Health Service (NHS) of UK has recently published a clinical guide for long-term management of the effects of COVID-19 with a comprehensive plan for the assessment and care of patients who present or develop symptoms from the fourth week after diagnosis.
The effective long-term management of the effects of COVID-19 is a challenge that requires awareness. The RECOVE project aims at determining the role of exercise in the treatment of post-COVID-19 syndrome ambulatory patients.
