Understanding the long-term effects of COVID-19
OTA-21-015A Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection Initiative: NYU Langone Health Clinical Science Core, Data Resource Core, and PASC Biorepository Core
This study is looking at the long-term health effects that people who have recovered from COVID-19 might experience, and it's for anyone who has had the virus and wants to help researchers understand lingering symptoms better by sharing their health information and samples.

What this research studies
This research investigates the long-term health effects experienced by individuals who have recovered from COVID-19. It aims to collect and analyze data from patients to better understand the post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, which may include a range of physical and mental health issues. Patients may be asked to participate by providing health information and biological samples to help build a comprehensive biorepository. The goal is to identify patterns and potential treatments for those suffering from lingering symptoms.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are individuals who have recovered from COVID-19 and are experiencing ongoing health problems.
Not a fit: Patients who have not had COVID-19 or those who are not experiencing any post-acute symptoms may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to improved understanding and management of long-term COVID-19 symptoms, benefiting many patients who experience these issues.
How similar studies have performed: Other research has shown success in understanding post-viral syndromes, suggesting that this approach could yield valuable insights into the long-term effects of COVID-19.
