“…29 Previous studies have often focused on quality of life in hospitalized patients due to ongoing persistent symptoms after being discharged that may lead to delay in regaining previous health. 30,31 In the present study, consistent with the literature, the impact of the pandemic on the COVID-19 quality of life was quite evident in hospitalized individuals. In COVID-19 disease, individuals with severe disease are hospitalized.…”

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate impact of pandemic on COVD-19 quality of life and effecting factors among adults wıth long COVID. Methods: The study included 440 individuals applying at family health centers for any reason. Participants were asked to complete a survey after their written consent was received. The survey consisted of two parts: the first related to socio-demographic information; the second including “COVID-19 Quality of Life Scale” and the “Perception Health Scale” . Mean, median, Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests and Sperman Correlation analysis were used in analysis. Results: Of the participants, 40.9% were male, 59.1% were female as well as 33.2% had at least one long COVID symptoms, 44.5% were reported that symptoms continued for 1-3 months. In addition, the median age was 41 years, the body mass index was 24.6 kg/m2. The median time since first infected was 7 month. The median COV19-QoL and Perception of Health Scale scores were 3.0 and 40.0 respectively. Among the prolonged COVID symptoms, fatigue/tiredness was shown with 53.2%. Other common symptoms were muscle pain (27.1%), headache/dizziness (24.1%), difficulty thinking or concentrating (20.9%), difficulty in breathing and heart palpitation (20.0%). The COV19-QoL median score significantly differed by education level, existing chronic conditions, COVID-19 treatment type, number of experienced long COVID symptoms and continuation of the symptoms p<0.05. There was significant correlation between COV19-QoL and age, time since first infected and perceived health score (p<0.05) . Conclusion: Aging, low education, existing chronic conditions, hospitalization, number of long symptoms, continuation of symptoms, and perception of health were risky factors for impact of the pandemic on COVID-19 quality of life. Specific rehabilitation services and programmes seems to be urgent need in overcoming this issue and to improve health. Key words: Long COVID, COVID-19, quality of life, adults, family health

“…It can be impacted by several factors, such as age, obesity, and chronic diseases [ 17 , 18 ]. Several factors compromise functional capacity and QoL after ICU admission, including prolonged VMI, sepsis, immobility, and multiple-organ dysfunction [ 19 ]. One study described the outcomes of IMV patients approximately 1.5 years after hospital discharge, observing that their ICU experience impacted their lives in the form of decreased QoL, physical function, and mental function and frequent loss of jobs; however, the authors did not objectively assess functional capacity during exercise [ 20 ].…”

“…[13][14][15] COVID-19 is also anticipated to significantly influence the well-being and health-related quality of life of recovered patients, given the rising number of COVID-19 patients and the high percentage of persons who are admitted and need ICU treatment for infection control. [16][17][18][19] However, given the brief period of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, only a limited amount of scientific information on the physical function and health-related quality of life implications of COVID-19 is known. 20,21 Another essential consideration in COVID-19-recovered patients is that lengthy periods of motion limitation and the illness itself might compromise physical function due to decreased strength and endurance, range of motion, and breathing ability, among other things.…”

This study aims to determine health-related quality of life (HRQoL) that includes the physical and mental health of recovered patients of COVID-19 and examines the significant impact of variables such as period of infection, sample demographics characteristics, hospitalization past, and chronic disease past and the other variables on HRQoL of COVID-19-recovered patients. Methods: An exploratory, community-based, cross-sectional research layout was adopted, using an electronic self-reporting survey disseminated online to recovered COVID-19 patients in Jordan. Targeted COVID-19 patients were individuals who were 18 years old or above. They had a documented background of COVID-19 illness, as stated in the following inclusion requirements: Those who had not been formally proven to have been afflicted by COVID-19 were excluded. Results:The mean of the physical well-being of study participants during COVID-19 was M=68.00 (SD=6.95), representing medium physical well-being status. The mean of psychological well-being of study participants during COVID-19 was M=60.20 (SD=8.85), representing medium physical health. Multiple regression showed that female recovered patients who are not working, with a low level of income, married women, and who getting COVID-19 more than once are having lower health-related quality of life compared to other recovered patients. Conclusion:The HRQoL of COVID-19 patients was significantly impacted, independent of the period since hospitalization or rehabilitation. Policymakers and health workers should research strong ways to enhance the HRQoL of COVID-19 patients as soon as possible. Elderly patients and those who have been infected more than one time and being hospitalized have a greater probability of decreased HRQoL after infection.
