Brief Summary

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

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a 15-week home telerehabilitation program and a detraining period on cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular efficiency in patients with post-COVID-19 sequelae compared to a control group of COVID-19 patients. We hypothesize that cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular efficiency significantly improve in patients who carry out the home telerehabilitation program. However, the cardiorespiratory and muscular adaptations achieved and tolerance to exercise are lost over time as an effect of detraining.

Study Groups

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

Supervised home telerehabilitation program

COVID-19 patients will perform a total of 15 weeks of a telerehabilitation program combined with aerobic and strength exercises using the circuit training methodology. COVID-19 patients will carry out 3 weekly sessions on non-consecutive days to avoid unnecessary overload and maximize the adaptations, completing a total of 45 sessions

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Telerehabilitation program

Intervention Type OTHER

The supervised telerehabilitation program will be performed in the home of each patient and supervised by an experienced physiotherapist with more than 4 years of clinical experience in therapeutic exercise for chronic diseases.

non-supervised control group

COVID-19 patients that will not perform the telerehabilitation program

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
