What the study is about

The primary objectives of this study are to determine whether exercise training is an effective strategy for treatment of Long COVID and characterize the cardiorespiratory and autonomic physiology in these patients to precisely characterize mechanisms contributing to this syndrome.

Being studied: Exercise

Conditions: Post-acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Eligibility criteria

Copied from the official record. The study team makes the final decision at screening.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Adults ≥18 years with documented history of COVID-19 infection and symptoms consistent with Long COVID lasting >12 weeks after diagnosis.

Exclusion Criteria

  • History of cardiovascular/pulmonary disease prior to infection
  • COVID-related myocardial injury such as evidence of myocarditis
  • Deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism following COVID-19 infection
  • Exercise intolerance resulting from conditions that are not related to cardiorespiratory or autonomic factors (e.g. osteoarthritis or other musculoskeletal diseases);
  • Dependency of supplemental oxygen following COVID infection due to cardiovascular and/or pulmonary complications following acute COVID infection
