Persistent COVID-19 condition includes a wide variety of symptoms and health problems of indeterminate duration. The present study examined the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the population with Long COVID seen in Primary Care using a questionnaire based on the existing scientific literature. It was an observational and descriptive study of the characteristics of the Spanish population with Long COVID over 14 years of age. The responses were analysed by means of a descriptive analysis of the variables recorded, in addition to a bivariate analysis to determine the existence of a relationship between persistent COVID-19 and variables such as gender, age, vaccination status or concomitant pathology. The results obtained clearly describe the sociodemographic characteristics of the population, highlighting the predominance of female gender and the prevalence of tiredness and fatigue. Furthermore, relevant information was obtained on the differences in symptomatology according to gender, age, previous pathologies and alterations derived from infection and/or vaccination. These data are important for better detection, diagnosis and treatment of Long COVID and the improvement of the quality of life of this population.
持续性新冠病毒感染状况包括各种症状和持续时间不确定的健康问题。本研究使用基于现有科学文献的问卷，调查了在初级保健机构中出现长期新冠症状的人群的社会人口学和临床特征。这是一项针对14岁以上西班牙长期新冠病毒感染人群特征的观察性描述性研究。除了进行双变量分析以确定持续性新冠病毒感染与性别、年龄、疫苗接种状况或伴随疾病等变量之间的关系外，还通过对记录变量的描述性分析对回答进行了分析。所获得的结果清楚地描述了该人群的社会人口学特征，突出了女性的主导地位以及疲劳和乏力的普遍性。此外，还获得了有关根据性别、年龄、既往疾病以及感染和/或疫苗接种引起的症状差异的相关信息。这些数据对于更好地检测、诊断和治疗长期新冠病毒感染以及改善该人群的生活质量非常重要。
