What Can Physical Therapy Do for the Post COVID-19 Patient?

Common Direct & Indirect Effects of Covid-19 Can be Improved with Physical Therapy 

Whether your patients are deconditioned due to a positive diagnosis of COVID-19 or simply deconditioned because of having to shelter-in-place, Physical Therapy can help improve a variety of common symptoms and challenges people are facing after COVID-19. FYZICAL has developed a Patient Care Guide: Status Post COVID-19, to help our clinicians and our patients navigate the impact of respiratory illness and decreased mobility following Corona Virus.  

For patients after Corona Virus, Physical Therapy treatment can help improve pain & fatigue, respiration  & pulmonary status, cardiac status strength, endurance, mobility & flexibility. Physical Therapy will focus on improving functional outcomes for your patients including their ability to complete activities of daily living and prevent falls.

FYZICAL has identified 4 Patient Presentations that would benefit from Physical Therapy:

1. Hospitalized: Individuals who required mechanical  ventilation

2. Diagnosed/Moderate: Individuals who didn’t require mechanical ventilation

3. Vulnerable/At-Risk: Individuals with signs and symptoms but no positive test

4. Deconditioned: Individuals with functional loss and increased falls risk as a result of reduced activity
