What this trial studies
The SuperCAP study aims to design and implement an online program to enhance cognitive, emotional, and functional status in individuals suffering from post-COVID condition. It consists of two stages: the first involves forming a focus group to help design the intervention and provide feedback, while the second stage tests the effectiveness of the program. Participants will be divided into an Intervention Group, which will engage with the program, and a Control Group, which will not. The intervention will utilize a mobile/tablet application featuring various games and exercises aimed at stimulating cognitive functioning and emotional well-being.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-65 who have been experiencing post-COVID syndrome with cognitive complaints for at least three months.
Not a fit: Patients currently participating in other trials or programs for post-COVID symptoms may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this program could significantly improve the cognitive and emotional health of patients suffering from post-COVID syndrome.
How similar studies have performed: While there have been various interventions for post-COVID conditions, this specific approach utilizing an online program is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested.
