Characterization of patients with long COVID syndrome including symptoms, medical historyand persistent organ damage.
Some people are very hesitant to recover from a COVID-19 infection and present persistent
symptoms. The participants still suffer after the acute phase of the infection from
shortness of breath, coughing, chest pain or fatigue. Therefore, a special
interdisciplinary consultation was built. The consulatation is not only addressed to
people who have been hospitalized due to COVID-19, but also to those with mild symptoms
during infection. During the consultation hours, personal health data are collected that
serves as the basis for this research project.
