What this trial studies

This observational study aims to develop a specific quality of life measure for individuals recovering from COVID-19. Participants will be recruited and divided into three groups based on their hospitalization status: not hospitalized, hospitalized but not in intensive care, and hospitalized in intensive care. The study will utilize a novel method to gather insights from participants about the areas of their lives affected by COVID-19, which will inform the creation of the quality of life tool. Following the development phase, participants will be invited to complete the tool monthly for a year to assess its effectiveness.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a tailored quality of life measure that better reflects the experiences of post-COVID-19 patients.

How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies on quality of life in COVID-19 patients, the specific approach of developing a patient-reported measure based on direct input from patients is relatively novel.
