Summary

The overall goal of this study is to find out if rehabilitation exercise can help people who have long COVID. Participants will be randomized by chance to receive either aerobic exercise or breathing exercise (combined with stretches). Participants will be guided and supported in completing a tailored, 6-week home exercise program to be performed 5 - 6 days a week, prescribed and supervised by rehabilitation therapists. Participants will perform breathing exercises, which will be supervised by an occupational therapist. The focus of Aim 1 is to determine feasibility of implementing RESToRE in long COVID.

Conditions

  • Long Covid19
  • Exercise Intolerance
  • Riboflavin-Responsive

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Restoring Energy with Sub-symptom Threshold Aerobic Rehabilitation Exercise

8 week exercise program. 20 minutes of home aerobic exercise most days, phone- based motivational exercise coaching and supervised exercise with our team exercise physiologist.

BEHAVIORAL

Light Stretching/Breathing Exercises

The control group will receive 8-week, attention-matched, stretching and breathing exercises, supervised by a rehabilitation clinician (via 20-minute weekly video visits). Exercises performed 5 days a week will not increase HR significantly. Participants will record and track their HR with Apple watch and app; like RESToRE, fidelity of treatment will be objectively measured using HR data.
