Summary

In some patients, lung function declined by about 20 to 30% after recovery. Computer tomography of COVID-19 patients revealed a ground glass opacity in both lungs. We will measure the Cardiorespiratory fitness according to American College of Sports medicine guidline and provide physiotherapy exercise to the patients to measure the improvement.

Detailed description

In December 2019, the first reports emerged of a novel severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Wuhan, China. The virus, which causes atypical pneumonia progressing to acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in some individuals, was named COVID-19. The burden of fibrotic lung disease following SARS-CoV-2 infection is likely to be high; therefore, given the scale of the pandemic, the global burden of fibrotic lung disease will probably increase considerably. The aim of this study is to check the cardiorespiratory fitness level and the effect of Physical therapy intervention to improve the Cardiorespiratory fitness level in patients recovered from COVID-19. Quality of life has also been affected due to COVID19 due to decreased Cardiorespiratory fitness level, and this study also aims to improve the quality of life of people recovered from COVID19.
