SuperCAP study is a project aimed at designing and implementing an online program for improvement of cognitive, emotional, and functional status in post-COVID condition.
SuperCAP study will include 2 stages.
Stage 1 will involve the composition of a focus group previous to the effectiveness study
development.
The work with this focus group will have several aims, among them, mainly, to participate in
the design of the intervention program, and to provide feedback on the study follow-up.
Stage 2 will include the effectiveness study. This stage will comprise the initiation of the
intervention program, study follow-up, and dissemination of the results in the end of the
project.
Two study groups will participate: the Intervention Group and the Control Group.
The Intervention Group will be comprised by people with post-COVID condition who will follow
the intervention program proposed.
The Control Group will be comprised by people with post-COVID condition who will not follow
the program.
Both groups will fulfill the same study participation criteria.
The intervention will consist of the follow-up of a distance program via mobile/tablet. This
program will integrate different games and exercises always with the objective of stimulating
the cognitive functioning and the emotional status.
