Brief Summary

Dyspnea is defined by a subjective sensation of respiratory discomfort, the intensity of which varies according to the terrain, the anamnesis and the cause. Resuscitation is associated with many causes of dyspnea, including initial distress, mechanical ventilation, or after-effects following the pathology and its management. Respiratory distress is the most severe form of impaired lung function. It is the first cause of hospitalization in intensive care. This distress, indicative of the failure of the respiratory system, is always severe and potentially fatal. It therefore constitutes an absolute therapeutic emergency. Dyspnea is often the revealing symptom of the condition and the urgency surrounding its management is an additional factor of concern for the patient. As a result, dyspnea is a pejorative element associated with severity or even death. In patients surviving the initial condition, dyspnea persists and can be found months or even years later, despite the initial rehabilitation. It is strongly associated with anxiety or even the fear of dying and contributes to the occurrence of post-traumatic stress syndromes. This persistent sensation of respiratory discomfort, limiting the patient's autonomy in his activities of daily living, seems to be able to reduce his quality of life. In addition, the perpetuation of this dyspnea could favor a spiral of deconditioning causing a progressive deterioration of the cardio-respiratory system justifying new hospitalizations. In patients with chronic respiratory failure, exercise rehabilitation supervised by hysiotherapists allows, in addition to improving autonomy, a significant reduction in dyspnoea, thus increasing the quality of life of these patients. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect at 2 years of 3 modes of management of dyspnea: exercise rehabilitation, standard physiotherapy and "usual care" on post-resuscitation dyspnea in patients with presented with severe COVID-19.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluate the effect of exercise rehabilitation on post-ICU dyspnea

    This outcome corresponds to the comparison of Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile (MDP) scale assessment of dyspnea between year 2 and Day 1. The Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile (MDP) assesses overall breathing discomfort, sensory qualities, and emotional responses in laboratory and clinical settings. The MDP consist of 11 descriptors of breathlessness rated using numerical rating scales (NRS) ranging from 0 to 10. A total score can be summarised as well as an immediate perception subdomain (6 items), and an emotional response subdomain (5 items).

    Year 2

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Evaluate the effect of exercise rehabilitation on functional dyspnea

    Year2

  • Evaluate the effect of stress rehabilitation on quality of life at the end of exercise rehabilitation

    Year2
