- Registration Number
- NCT04983394
- Lead Sponsor
- Cumhuriyet University
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality exercises on pain, cardiopulmonary capacity, mood and quality of life in patients with post-COVID syndrome.
- Detailed Description
This study, which will be conducted in Sivas Cumhuriyet University, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic, was diagnosed with COVID-19 from an oropharyngeal or nasopharyngeal swab sample more than 90 days ago with polymerase chain reaction, whose symptoms have continued since the diagnosis of COVID-19, and inpatient treatment. 63 adult female and male post-COVID syndrome patients who did not develop pneumonia or organ failure findings will be included. Those who have had acute myocardial infarction in the last 6 months, have cardiovascular system disease such as uncontrolled hypertension, arrhythmia, aneurysm, cardiac failure, have undergone fracture or orthopedic surgery in the last 3 months, have a known chronic respiratory system disease, cause widespread pain such as fibromyalgia syndrome Those who have a disease or cannot be mobilized independently will not be included in the study. The sample size was determined as d=0.80 α=0.05 p=0.80410 n=54 using the G\*Power 3.1.9.4 program. Considering the 15% drop-out risk, 63 patients were planned to be included.
Demographic data of all participants, including age, gender, height, weight and body mass index, and the time elapsed since the diagnosis of COVID-19 will be recorded. In addition, participants' pain intensity, functional capacity, general health status, mood, and fatigue levels will be evaluated.
