COVID-19 is a multisystem disease, with various complications besides respiratory disorders that can affect various systems ranging from the heart, kidneys, gastrointestinal, nervous, endocrine, and musculoskeletal. Post COVID-19/Long Covid Syndrome is a condition where the symptoms of COVID-19 persist even though they have been declared cured. Health workers have a fairly large risk of being infected with COVID-19, as well as the risk of symptoms of Post COVID 19 Syndrome with the most complaining symptom being fatigue. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of supervised cardiopulmonary exercise on increasing functional capacity in health workers with Post Covid-19 Syndrome. This study used an experimental research design with the sample divided into the control group and the treatment group. We provided supervised cardiopulmonary exercise with moderate and high intensity on 30 medical personnel for 12 times in Cardiac Rehabilitation Gymnasium. It was concluded that treatment group experienced an increase in functional capacity compared to the control group. The improvement in functional capacity between the moderate and high intensity exercise groups was not significantly different. Increased functional capacity will improve the quality of life in patients with Post Covid-19 Syndrome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
