Post-COVID-19 complications in home and hospital-based care: A study from Dhaka city, Bangladesh

DOI record: { "DOI": "10.3389/fresc.2022.1037649", "ISSN": [ "2673-6861" ], "URL": "http://dx.doi.org/10.3389/fresc.2022.1037649", "abstract": "<jats:p>A cross-sectional survey was undertaken to understand the management patterns and post-COVID-19 complications among hospital and home-treated participants. Retrospective information was collected from four COVID-19 dedicated hospitals and four selected community settings. Using probability proportional sampling, 925 participants were selected. Data were collected using a semi-structured questionnaire. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis and the exact chi-square tests were utilized to analyze the association between the studied variables. A total of 659 participants responded (response rate 70.93%); 375 from hospitals and 284 from communities. About 80% of participants were mild cases, 75% were treated at home, and 65% of hospital-treated participants were referred after home treatment. Participants treated at home-to hospital and directly in the hospital had 1.64 and 3.38 times longer recovery time respectively than what home-based participants had. A significant increasing trend (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.001) of co-morbidities was found among referred and hospital treated participants. Age, level of education, physical exercise, practicing preventive measures, exposure to sunlight, and intake of carbohydrate, additional liquid, food supplements, and avoidance of junk foods were significantly associated with place of treatment. Post-COVID-19 difficulties of all factors were statistically significant for home treatment participants, whilst only depression (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.026), chest pain (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.017), and digestive disorders (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.047) were significant (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05) for hospital treated participants. The outcomes from this study provide insight into a range of post-COVID-19 difficulties relating to at home and in hospital treatment participants. There are clear differences in the complications experienced, many of which are statistically significant. The health care professionals, the community people and COVID-19 survivors will be benefitted from the study findings, and the policy level people may use the information for designing health education program on post COVID-19 complications.</jats:p>", "alternative-id": [ "10.3389/fresc.2022.1037649" ], "author": [ { "affiliation": [], "family": "Khandker", "given": "Salamat", "sequence": "first" }, { "affiliation": [], "family": "Akther", "given": "Aivee", "sequence": "additional" }, { "affiliation": [], "family": "Syed", "given": "Billal H.", "sequence": "additional" }, { "affiliation": [], "family": "Shafiullah", "given": "Rezoun", "sequence": "additional" }, { "affiliation": [], "family": "Ahmed", "given": "Kawsar", "sequence": "additional" }, { "affiliation": [], "family": "Chowdhury", "given": "Alauddin A.", "sequence": "additional" }, { "affiliation": [], "family": "Khan", "given": "Salim", "sequence": "additional" } ], "container-title": "Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences", "container-title-short": "Front.
