Brief Summary

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

Exertional desaturation is a feature of COVID-19. The study will measure vital signs of patients discharge by practitioners in primary care, secondary care or by paramedic practitioners. Patients will then undertake a 40-steps on the spot walk followed by measurements of heart rate and oxygen saturations for up to two minutes. Association of desaturation with 30 days hospital admission and mortality will be reported.
