Brief Summary

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

Characterization of patients with long COVID syndrome including symptoms, medical history and persistent organ damage.

Detailed Description

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

Some people are very hesitant to recover from a COVID-19 infection and present persistent symptoms. The participants still suffer after the acute phase of the infection from shortness of breath, coughing, chest pain or fatigue. Therefore, a special interdisciplinary consultation was built. The consulatation is not only addressed to people who have been hospitalized due to COVID-19, but also to those with mild symptoms during infection. During the consultation hours, personal health data are collected that serves as the basis for this research project.
