Decline in Mobility and Balance in Persons with Post-COVID-19 Condition

CONCLUSIONS: Almost half the participants with PCC had reduced mobility and over a third reported deterioration in balance, with associated difficulties with daily functioning. Factors associated with greater decline help identify those most at risk.IMPACT: Many people with PCC experience changes in mobility and balance, which can affect functional capacities and lead to physical therapist consultations. Further study should assess specific needs of these patients and determine effective physical therapist interventions to meet these needs.PMID:38501884 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzae042
