Sufferers of long Covid ‘experience symptoms a year after hospital discharge’
Reading now: 908
Sufferers of long Covid who were taken to hospital and still experience symptoms five months afterwards displayed a limited recovery one year on, new research has found.
The study also confirmed earlier research that those who were female, obese and needed mechanical ventilation in hospital, were less likely to make a full recovery from the disease.
Researchers assessed 2,230 adults who had been admitted to hospital with coronavirus. All participants completed a five-month assessment and, so far, 807 people have completed both the five-month and 12-month assessments.
In the study, recovery was measured using patient-reported data: reports of how they felt, physical performance and organ function tests.
