Summary

The aim of this project is to provide insight into the relatively new group of post-COVID patients. On the basis of data collected in routine practice, function- and participation-related patient characteristics of post-COVID patients are first described descriptively. Subsequently, the extent to which selected function- and participation-related parameters change following a pneumological phase II rehabilitation in this group of patients is investigated. Furthermore, the extent of these possible changes will be compared between post-COVID patients who received respiratory muscle training and post-COVID patients who did not receive respiratory muscle training. Patients were not randomized but assigned to conditions based on medical criteria (e.g., initial respiratory muscle strength).

The present project provides insight into participation- and function-related characteristics of a relatively new patient population, enables the observation of changes in these following pneumological phase II rehabilitation and provides differentiated insights into the course of health-related parameters for specific subgroups (respiratory muscle training vs. no respiratory muscle training).

Conditions

  • Post-COVID-19

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Multimodal pulmonary rehabilitation

The rehabilitation is based on the biopsychosocial ICF model of the WHO. Taking into account the physical and psychological condition of the patients, an individual therapy plan is created that is tailored to the needs of the patients.
