Brief Summary
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, superiority clinical trial, with the test group expected to be superior to the control group in the primary evaluation endpoints (changes in Borg score and PSQI index at 3 months after the start of the treatment). The test group will use the investigational device Hydrogen-Oxygen Generator with Nebulizer (manufactured by Shanghai Asclepius Meditec Co., Ltd.) + basic treatment (supportive treatment determined by the investigator based on the condition of the patients), and the control group will use basic treatment only, to evaluate of effectiveness and safety of the investigational device Hydrogen-Oxygen Generator with Nebulizer for rehabilitation treatment of dysfunctions in discharged patients who are previously hospitalized due to 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19).

test group
EXPERIMENTALThe test group will use the investigational device Hydrogen-Oxygen Generator with Nebulizer (manufactured by Shanghai Asclepius Meditec Co., Ltd.) + basic treatment (supportive treatment determined by the investigator based on the condition of the patients)
Control Group
ACTIVE COMPARATORthe control group will use basic treatment only
Interventions
Treatments in the test group will lasts for 12 months, and symptomatic treatment will be provided based on the actual symptoms of the subjects. Subjects in the test group will be required to receive inhalation for at least 4 days every 7 days with at least 3780L inhaled every 7 days (It is recommended to inhale at least 540L per day; If the flow rate is 3L/min, it is recommended that the cumulative inhalation time should be at least 3 hours per day. If the flow rate is 1.5L/min, it is recommended that the cumulative inhalation time should be at least 6 hours per day).
supportive treatment determined by the investigator based on the condition of the patients
