Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the efficacy of telerehabilitation practice in Long COVID-19 patients. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are whether telerehabilitation practice in Long COVID-19 patients help to reduce stress oxidative, reduce inflammation, improve functional capacity and improve quality of life. Participants will receive 12 weeks of telerehabilitation practice Researchers will compare intervention group (that received telerehabilitation) and control group (that received standard treatment) to see if there is better outcome in intervention group.

Detailed description

Study background: Several study show that some survivors of COVID-19 have post COVID-19 sequelae. Previous studies suggest that rehabilitation interventions with appropriate prescription of physical exercise can provide short, medium and long term health benefits. Telerehabilitation services are an innovative strategy to support rehabilitation intervention and hopefully able to increase compliance of patients to exercise program. This study aims to prove the effectiveness of telerehabilitation in improving levels of inflammation, oxidative stress, functional capacity and quality of life in Long COVID-19 patients. Participants will be divided into intervention group and control group. Baseline measurement will be taken. Telerehabilitation will be given to the intervention group for 12 weeks. Control group will receive standard rehabilitation treatment. After 12 weeks post intervention measurement will be taken.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Telerehabilitation	Exercise prescriptions will be given based on the result of baseline assessment. The intensity of the exercise prescription and level of monitoring will be tailored to each participant's ability and condition. Exercise will be prescribed by a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist in accordance with standard rehabilitation protocols. Exercise will consist of aerobic exercise, resistance exercise and breathing exercise. Participants are asked to commit to do at least 36 sessions of exercise. Participants will be allowed to have a hybrid approach (10-12 in person, 24-26 virtual) or fully virtual.
BEHAVIORAL	Standard rehabilitation care	Exercise prescriptions will be given based on the result of baseline assessment. The intensity of the exercise prescription and level of monitoring will be tailored to each participant's ability and condition. Exercise will be prescribed by a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist in accordance with standard rehabilitation protocols. Exercise will consist of aerobic exercise, resistance exercise and breathing exercise. Participants are asked to commit to do at least 36 sessions of exercise.
