NCT05967039 | Unknown

• 1 other identifier: 30135320.0.0000.5259
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 65
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 2

Brief Summary

A paucity of prognostic studies in patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome (long-COVID) shows the need to identify the main effects on functional capacity in the short and medium term. In this regard, the evaluation of lung function, lung structure and functional capacity in long-COVID patients is essential to estimate the impact of the disease. This retrospective observational study aims to compare functional capacity, lung function, and lung ultrasound findings in patients who underwent physical therapy to those who did not.

Conditions

Post-COVID-19 Syndrome; Long COVID

Keywords

Functional capacity;; Six-minute walk test;; Spirometry;; Oscillometry;; Lung Ultrasound;; Ventilometry;

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Six-minute walk test coupled into the measurement of pulmonary ventilation

  The individuals will undergo the six-minute walk test coupled to the measurement of ventilation using equipment using a face mask with monitoring of ventilatory variables and vital signs on a 30-meter track where the purpose is to assess the functional capacity

  October 2023

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Impulse oscillometry

  October 2023

• Spirometry

  October 2023

• Lung ultrasound

  October 2023

• Functional Status scale PCFS

  October 2023
