Popis: Objective To determine the benefits associated with brief inpatient rehabilitation for Covid-19 patients. Design Retrospective chart review. Setting A newly created specialized rehabilitation unit in a tertiary care medical center Participants Consecutive sample of the first 100 patients with Covid-19 infection admitted to rehabilitation. Intervention Inpatient rehabilitation for post-acute care Covid-19 patients Main Outcome Measures Measurements, at admission and discharge, comprised a Barthel Activities of Daily Living Index (including baseline value before Covid-19 infection), time to perform 10 sit-to-stands with associated cardio-respiratory changes, and grip strength (dynamometry). Correlations between these outcomes and the time spent in ICU were explored. Results Patient characteristics upon admission to rehabilitation were: men 66%, age 66±22 years, mean delay from symptom onset 20.4±10.0 days, BMI 26.0±5.4 kg/m2, hypertension 49%, diabetes 29%, with 26% having >50% pulmonary damage on CT-scans. Mean length of rehabilitation stay was 9.8±5.6 days. From admission to discharge, the Barthel index (/100) increased from 77.3±26.7 to 88.8±24.5 (p
Highlights - Following Covid-19, responsiveness to inpatient rehabilitation should be determined. - A 10-day stay using predominantly motor rehabilitation improves functional outcomes. - Improvement rates were greater in more severely-affected patients upon admission. - Pre-morbid autonomy was not fully restored after brief inpatient rehabilitation. - Covid-19, a primarily respiratory disease, triggers lasting motor complications.
