Investigation of the Muscle Oxygenation in Patients With Post COVID-19 Syndrome

NCT05957575 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 39

Last updated 2023-08-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

More than 60% of patients infected with COVID-19 have long-term symptoms. These symptoms are associated with common ground-glass opacities on computed tomography scans and chest radiographs. The pathophysiology of long-term persistent symptoms is largely unknown, but hypoxia and hypoxic tissue damage, decreased pulmonary diffusion capacity, ventilation-perfusion mismatch, and lung fibrosis caused by COVID-19-associated pneumonia are thought to cause long-term symptoms. Desaturation may occur during exercise due to hypoxia, pneumonia and lung involvement in patients with post-COVID syndrome. Oxygenation of peripheral muscles may decrease due to hypoxemia, but there is not enough study on this subject yet.
