During the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictive measures can reduce physical activity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate predisease physical activity and current functional capacity in patients with and without the presence of pneumonia and oxygen requirement in Turkish survivors of COVID-19.
Among the COVID-19 patients admitted to the hospital, 100 patients were selected. Data about predisease physical activity (by short-form International Physical Activity Questionnaire), oxygen requirement and presence of pneumonia, and current functional capacity (by the 6-min walking test) were collected. Continuous and categorical variables were compared with the Mann-Whitney U and χ2 test, respectively (P < .05).
The predisease physical activity levels and current functional capacity of patients with pneumonia and oxygen requirement were significantly lower than patients without pneumonia and oxygen requirement (P < .05). However, there was no significant difference between males and females (P > 0.05). Pneumonia and oxygen requirement was more common in the older adults (P < .05). Also, a significant correlation was found between age with predisease physical activity (r = .530, P = .000) and current functional capacity (r = -.346, P = .000) and predisease physical activity level with current functional capacity (r = .523, P = .001).
The physical activity level may be related to the severity of COVID-19 disease.
在新冠疫情期间，限制措施会减少身体活动。本研究的目的是评估新冠疫情的土耳其幸存者中，有无肺炎及是否需要吸氧的患者病前的身体活动情况和当前的功能能力。
在收治的新冠患者中选取100例。收集病前身体活动情况（通过简短国际体力活动问卷）、吸氧需求和肺炎情况以及当前功能能力（通过6分钟步行试验）的数据。连续变量和分类变量分别采用曼-惠特尼U检验和χ2检验进行比较（P <.05）。
有肺炎且需要吸氧的患者病前身体活动水平和当前功能能力显著低于无肺炎且不需要吸氧的患者（P <.05）。然而，男性和女性之间无显著差异（P > 0.05）。肺炎和吸氧需求在老年人中更常见（P <.05）。此外，年龄与病前身体活动（r =.530，P =.000）、当前功能能力（r = -.346，P =.000）以及病前身体活动水平与当前功能能力之间均存在显著相关性（r =.523，P =.001）。
身体活动水平可能与新冠疾病的严重程度有关。
