Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) causes significant mortality and morbidity, with an unknown impact in the medium to long term. Evidence from previous coronavirus epidemics indicates that there is likely to be a substantial burden of disease, potentially even in those with a mild acute illness. The clinical and occupational effects of COVID-19 are likely to impact on the operational effectiveness of the Armed Forces. Collaboration between Defence Primary Healthcare, Defence Secondary Healthcare, Defence Rehabilitation and Defence Occupational Medicine resulted in the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre COVID-19 Recovery Service (DCRS). This integrated clinical and occupational pathway uses cardiopulmonary assessment as a cornerstone to identify, diagnose and manage post-COVID-19 pathology.
2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)导致了大量的死亡和发病,其在中长期的影响尚不清楚。来自以往冠状病毒流行的证据表明,疾病的负担可能很大,甚至可能在那些急性轻症患者中也是如此。COVID-19 的临床和职业影响可能会影响武装部队的作战效能。国防初级保健、国防二级保健、国防康复和国防职业医学之间的合作产生了国防医疗康复中心 COVID-19 康复服务(DCRS)。这条综合临床和职业途径使用心肺评估作为基石,以识别、诊断和管理 COVID-19 后病理学。
