Table 2: Rapid responses in the context of COVID-19 - Management of post-COVID-19 patients in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (MPR) [8].
Quick response n°1 |
The more or less severe deficiencies of respiratory, cardiovascular, renal, neurocognitive, psychiatric, musculoskeletal, metabolic and nutritional orders, leading to a limitation of activity, are frequent and particularly important in these patients, and will require taking in prolonged charge. |
Quick response n°2 |
The risk of contamination requires strict application of protective measures during rehabilitation/rehabilitation sessions during the contagious phase which can last beyond the acute phase.
|
Quick response n°3 |
The objectives of PRM hospitalization are the diagnostic workup and assessment of specific impairments and activity limitations, the structuring of rehabilitation/rehabilitation programs, and the monitoring of medical complications. |
Quick response n°4 |
Some patients require a multi-professional rehabilitation/rehabilitation program coordinated by a doctor from MPR. The use of oxygen therapy is often necessary.
|
Quick response n°5 |
As long as the patient is not stabilized, rehabilitation/rehabilitation must take into account the risk of cardiorespiratory decompensation and specific thromboembolic complications, with monitoring of physiological constants.
|
Quick response n°6 |
Each rehabilitation/rehabilitation intervention must take into account the fatigability of these patients who are often undernourished, asthenic and carry co-morbidities. |
Quick response n°7 |
Rehabilitation at home can be carried out by tele-care, or with exercise self-programs previously learned and supervised remotely, or by a physiotherapist at home if his absence causes a loss of luck for the patient.
