Popis: The COVID-19 outbreak caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 was declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. Patients infected with the disease have to be kept in social isolation in order to limit the spread of infection. This in turn led to anxiety and fear among the general public post isolation related to spread of infection. Furthermore, it was observed that many of them suffered from disturbed sleep which in turn affected the quality of life (QOL) of the patients post COVID-19 infection. The following case report concluded of a positive effect of guided imagery (GI) as an adjunct to pulmonary rehabilitation on anxiety, QOL, and quality of sleep in a post COVID-19 patient via telerehabilitation.
