There is one clinical trial.
Rehabilitation interventions can help address the consequences of COVID-19. These include medical, physical, cognitive and psychological related problems. To our knowledge, no studies have investigated the effects of rehabilitation following discharge from hospital. The specific aims of this project are to investigate the effects of a 12-week exercise program on pulmonary fibrosis in recovering COVID-19 patients. A further aim will be to examine how Chinese herbal medicines, gut microbiome and its metabolites regulate immune function and possibly autoimmune deficiency in the rehabilitation process.

The scale will discriminate between the negative emotional syndromes of depression, anxiety, and stress in Chinese populations. Only the subscales of anxiety and stress will be used. The anxiety scale assesses autonomic arousal, skeletal muscle effects, situational anxiety, and subjective experience of anxious affect. The stress scale is sensitive to levels of chronic nonspecific arousal. It assesses difficulty relaxing, nervous arousal, and being easily upset/agitated, irritable/over-reactive & impatient. The rating scale is as follows: 0=Did not apply to me at all Applied to me to some degree, or some of the time Applied to me to a considerable degree or a good part of time Applied to me very much or most of the time Scores are calculated by summing the scores for the relevant items. Higher scores indicate greater degrees of anxiety and stress.
