Description
A team led by Miriã Oliveira tests a lung rehab course for people who stayed ill after COVID-19 in a 2026 trial. Fifty-four patients who had been in hospital took part, some from plain wards and some from intensive care. The course ran three times a week for six weeks, mixing breath training with strength work.
Walk distance in six minutes rose by about seventy-five metres on average. Breathlessness scores fell by more than half, and tiredness and daily function scores both gained a lot. Ward patients gained more on raw counts, yet the lone firm flag of gain was a low starting walk mark. Care-unit stay by itself did not flag gains.
