Incidence and characterisation of post-COVID-19 symptoms in hospitalized COVID-19 survivors: A single centre, prospective observational cohort study to recognize the syndemic connotations in India

CONCLUSIONS: 60.8% of inpatients treated for COVID-19 had post-COVID-19 symptoms at 6 week's post- discharge from hospital. Incidence of post-COVID-19 syndrome in the cohort did not significantly differ across the mild, moderate and severe COVID-19 severity categories. Female sex and steroid administration during hospital stay were identified as predictors of persistence of post-COVID-19 symptoms at 6 weeks.PMID:36920842 | DOI:10.2196/40028
