Study shows persistent symptoms are common three months after testing for COVID-19 yale
The CDC defines symptoms of COVID-19 persisting beyond four weeks as"long COVID." Due to its extensive range of symptoms, the post-viral syndrome is challenging to research and is poorly understood. This study, in which Yale New Haven Health was one of eight health care systems that participated, was published inon December 27 and is part of the larger INSPIRE, a CDC-funded registry.
"Through my own personal experience taking care of patients with long COVID, as well as what is described in the literature, we know that the symptoms span every organ system," she says."And so we need to be really comprehensive in evaluating people's symptoms to allow us to understand the multitude of different sequelae that could occur."
The team enrolled individuals from eight sites around the country, including Yale New Haven Health, RUSH University Medical Center, and University of Washington. To find potential participants, they reached out to nearby hospitals, emergency departments, testing centers, and community health clinics to identify people who had recently taken a COVID-19 test. They enrolled any participant who was experiencing symptoms at the time of taking the test.
"This is a clue that there are a lot of other people struggling," says Spatz."Chronic fatigue is common after other infectious diseases, too. We're also all living through this pandemic. There are many different stressors that may be resulting in these systemic symptoms."
