ABSTRACT
Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 may be associated with a white spectrum of post recovery disease complications and health impairment. The objective of this study was to evaluate and assess the different perimeters of pulmonary Function Tests and late outcome of the disease after hospital discharge at 3 and 6 months among the patients admitted with swerve COVID Pneumonia. Method: Our analysis consisted of comparison of the FVC at 3 and 6 months after hospital discharge in order to evaluate the disease severity with time. Results: A total of 41 hospitalized patients had their Pulmonary Function Tests evaluated >70% of the patients had their FVC <80% at 3 months and >12% had their FVC <80% at 6 months. To study abnormality of spirometry in severe post COVID-19 patients who were discharge from ICU hospital and complete the follow up after one month 3, 6. CONCLUSION: In patients who developed moderate to severe pneumonia more than 70% had abnormal FVC at 3 months. These patients were to be identified and treated with optimal management and as a result only 12% of patients had long term impairment in FVC and long term sequel.
