Symptoms and Clinical Outcomes of Coronavirus Disease 2019 in the Outpatient Setting

Abstract: Because most cases of coronavirus disease 2019 are not severe, understanding the epidemiology of mild cases has important clinical implications. We aimed to describe the symptom profile and associated outcomes in a virtual outpatient COVID-19 clinic. We conducted a prospective cohort study from March through June 2020. We included 106 patients with positive results for SARS-CoV-2, followed up until they had 2 sequential negative tests. Exploratory regression analyses identified potential prognostic symptoms o… Show more

“…Eight had repeated measure designs [ 53 , 56 , 62 , 68 , 69 , 71 , 76 , 81 ]. Where there were multiple assessments of fatigue within a temporal group, we calculated the mean of the fatigue scores or mean of the proportion of patients reporting fatigue.…”

“…While there are numerous studies examining the clinical course of patients with COVID-19 requiring hospitalization or critical care, 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 there is limited data describing the disease course in the outpatient population despite the fact that most patients with COVID-19 do not require hospitalization. 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 Older age and the presence of specific medical conditions have previously been associated with illness severity among adults hospitalized with COVID-19. 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 Both age and specific medical conditions have been associated with greater susceptibility to the disease and prolonged illness in outpatient populations, although data supporting these findings are limited.…”
