Abstract
Introduction. The pandemic of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19 has made significant changes in all spheres of modern human life. Understanding disability in patients post COVID-19 (CoronaVirus Disease - 19) allows to assess the need for physical rehabilitation.
The objective was to determine the relationship between post-COVID syndrome and the development of delayed disability in patients who have been exposed to the COVID-19 as part of the assessment of the need for rehabilitation.
Methods and materials. Using the method of standardized phone interview (14) three and twelve months post COVID-19, 855 patients were surveyed with an assessment of the level of rehabilitation needs at the time before COVID-19 (anamnestically), as well as three and twelve months after the disease, on the rehabilitation routing scale (RRS), mobility on the Rivermead scale and comparison of results with clinical data on the course of COVID-19.
Results. Delayed disability was revealed in patients post COVID-19. The necessity of active examination and rehabilitation measures in patients who do not need proper rehabilitation is shown (RRS – 1).
Conclusion. Post-COVID syndrome may be a predictor of the development of delayed disability in patients post COVID-19. The use of RRS in patients post COVID-19 is a reliable method necessary in the process of determining further routing after the disease.
