简要总结
The purpose of this study is to describe balance deficits in patients post COVID-19. The information the investigators learn may help influence balance training exercises for patients post-COVID-19. Participants will have a primary or secondary diagnosis of COVID-19 during hospitalization and off COVID-19 isolation and be receiving care in an acute inpatient hospital. Following consent, participants will complete balance assessments and questionnaires about balance and dizziness in a single session. Vital signs will be monitored during the session.The greatest risks of this study include shortness of breath, and a risk of falling or musculoskeletal soreness.These risks are no greater than those experienced during a usual physical therapy visit.
详细描述
Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), blood pressure (BP), and oxygen saturation (SpO2) will be measured at rest and after all outcome measures are completed. Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) (0-10 per modified Borg scale) will be measured after each outcome measure. In addition, HR will be measured after each outcome measure. SpO2 will be continually monitored via pulse oximetry. Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) will be titrated per MD orders. If SpO2 drops below MD-specified parameters, patients will first be given a 3-minute seated rest break. If SpO2 recovers above MD-specified parameters after rest break, activity will resume. If SpO2 remains below MD-specified parameters after rest break or continues to drop with activity, FiO2 will be titrated to maintain SpO2 within MD-specified parameters.

结局指标
主要结局
Motor Balance as Measured by Timed Up and Go (TUG)
时间窗: Baseline
The TUG measures mobility, motor balance, walking ability, and falls risk based on how long it takes the patient to stand up, walk 10 feet, turn around, walk back, and sit down. \< 10 seconds = normal, \< 20 seconds = good mobility; can walk outside alone; does not require a walking aid, \< 30 seconds = walking and balance problems; cannot walk outside alone; requires walking aid.
次要结局
- Sensory Influence on Balance as Measured by Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction in Balance (mCTSIB)(Baseline)
- Balance Confidence as Measured by Activities Specific Balance Confidence (ABC) Scale(Baseline)
