The aim of the study is to evaluate the functional status and quality of life parameters of patients in the 1st and 6th months post-COVID and to determine contributing factors.
The effects of COVID-19 can continue in the post-COVID period. The mostcommon post-COVID symptoms are weakness, fatigue, nonproductive cough and exertionaldyspnea.
The radiological findings of the patients at diagnosis, post-COVID 1st and 6th months; functional status and quality of life parameters at the 1st and 6th months of the post-COVID period were compared, and the factors affecting them were evaluated. The relationship between radiological involvement, quality of life and functional status parameters was investigated.
Six months after the COVID infection, inpatient's resting oxygen saturation and effort capacity were comparable, even though they were significantly lower in the first month post-COVID. There was a correlation between functional and quality of life measures at 1 and 6 months after COVID-19 infection. In all patients, a significant improvement was found in the functional status and quality of life scales at 6 months after post-COVID infection compared to the 1st month. Even though radiological findings of both groups improved within the first month after COVID-19 infection, there remained a difference between them that disappeared after six months.
It was found that in the post-COVID period, the severity of the disease had a negative effect on functional measurements and quality of life; however, regardless of the severity of the disease, after six months improvements in radiological findings, effort capacity, and quality of life measures were noted (Tab. 2, Fig. 5, Ref. 20).

本研究旨在评估新冠康复后第1个月和第6个月患者的功能状态及生活质量参数，并确定相关影响因素。
新冠病毒感染（COVID-19）的影响在康复期仍会持续。最常见的新冠康复后症状为虚弱、疲劳、干咳和运动性呼吸困难。
比较患者诊断时、新冠康复后第1个月和第6个月的影像学检查结果；对比新冠康复期第1个月和第6个月的功能状态及生活质量参数，并评估影响这些参数的因素。研究影像学表现、生活质量和功能状态参数之间的关系。
新冠感染6个月后，患者静息时的血氧饱和度和运动能力与新冠康复后第1个月相比虽仍显著降低，但二者相当。新冠感染后1个月和6个月时，功能指标与生活质量指标之间存在相关性。与第1个月相比，所有患者在新冠感染后6个月时的功能状态和生活质量量表均有显著改善。尽管两组患者的影像学表现在新冠感染后第1个月内均有所改善，但两者之间仍存在差异，而这种差异在6个月后消失。
研究发现，在新冠康复期，疾病的严重程度对功能测量和生活质量有负面影响；然而，无论疾病严重程度如何，6个月后影像学表现、运动能力和生活质量指标均有所改善（表2，图5，参考文献20）。PDF文本www.elis.sk关键词：新冠康复期、生活质量、功能测量、胸部X光片
