Background summary
Rationale: The world is overwhelmed by COVID-19, a new respiratory infectious disease. This new disease and surreal situation are expected to cause severe and long-lasting physi-cal, cognitive and psychological consequences, affecting participation and health-related quality of life. After hospitalization, many patients may need inpatient treatment in a rehabilitation or geriatric center, while others may be able to go home with outpatient rehabilitation. Health care paths and long-term functional outcomes after COVID-19 are not known yet. Knowledge on the extent and predictors of recovery after hospitalization in patients with COVID-19 is urgently needed, and will facilitate optimization of triage and rehabilitation of COVID-19 patients and comparable (future) infectious diseases.
Objective: The aim of this study is to set up a registry and to systematically study the long-term outcomes of patients with COVID-19 who survived hospitalization in the Rotterdam Rijnmond area.
Study design: Multicenter prospective cohort study with a 2-year follow-up period. Data registration as part of regular care takes place in rehabilitation centers and nursing homes (at admission and discharge) and during regular out-patient visits at 3 and 6 months. Additional measurements predominantly concern long-term measurements after 12 and 24 months post-discharge.
Study population: Patients diagnosed with COVID-19, within 3 months post-discharge, aged 18 years and older.
Intervention (if applicable): Not applicable.
Main study parameters/endpoints: Physical, cognitive, and psychological functioning, using non-invasive clinical tests and online questionnaires.
Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The registry is set up for patients with COVID-19 and is therefore group-related. Data are copied from patient records and additional measurements are non-invasive and minimally physically demanding. Completion of questionnaires and additional measurements require a certain time investment from patients and might lead to temporary fatigue. Yet, by providing frequent breaks and a maximum duration of 60-84 minutes per session for online questionnaires and a maximum duration of 40-45 minutes per session for clinical tests, we aim to minimize the burden for patients. Participants will gain more insight in their recovery.
Study objective
The aim of the CO-FLOW study is to set up a registry and to systematically study the long-term outcomes of patients with COVID-19 who survived hospitalization in the Rotterdam-Rijnmond region, by recording data from usual care and collecting additional data over a 2 years period. Based on current reports, we expect that recovery from COVID-19 will take a long time and that COVID-19 may result in long-term disability.
