Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study seeks to assess the impact of physical and pulmonary rehabilitation on patients who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 in the short and long term in hopes of establishing a best practices protocol for treatment of future patients with this disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The novel coronavirus that began in Wuhan, China in late 2019 made an appearance in the United States in January 2020. It is a respiratory disease spreading rapidly from person to person. Recent data shows that fibrosis is seen on the lungs, and possible myocardial damage. Data shows that physical therapy was not highly utilized in recovery for these patients due to high PPE demands, and increased risk of exposure. This study will be using telehealth services to assess and treat these patients so Physical Therapy guidance is provided for movement and returning to prior level of function. Currently there is no data showing the long term effects of the those who were able to utilize Physical Therapy in recovering from COVID-19 This study will be looking at the differences in outcomes of COVID-19 positive subjects who able to complete Physical Therapy Telehealth visits versus those who did not. All groups will be tested at multiple data points for lung capacity, upper and lower extremity strength, and overall endurance to determine the long term functional effects. The control group were diagnosed with COVID-19 and recovered before the Physical and Pulmonary protocol was implemented.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

NON_RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Patients receiving care through the program developed by the University of Missouri Healthcare system will, if willing, return for follow up testing and be compared against a matched group that did not receive the rehabilitative treatment to see if there are short or long term differences.

Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Investigators Outcome Assessors

Participants and care providers will know which group they are in, but data will be deidentified and blinded prior to analysis or viewing by the primary investigator

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Standard of Care

These are patients who were diagnosed with COVID19 and recovered with usual care prior to implementation of the rehabilitation program developed by MUHC therapists. These patients will be selected in such a way as to match the approximate demographics that exist within the treatment group. These patients received education and supportive care only.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Rehabilitation Group

These are patients who were diagnosed with COVID19 and participated in the physical and pulmonary rehabilitation program developed at MU Healthcare as described in the study design.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Therapy Intervention

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Patients receive 2-4 visits (based on patient presentation and need) of physical therapy, up to 4 visits of occupational therapy, up to 4 visits of speech therapy based on need. Treatment focuses on physical strengthening, pulmonary strengthening/breathing exercises, and cognitive rehabilitation.
