Introduction: Once the COVID-19 pandemic was declared, the rehabilitation services began to prepare themselves for the care, through different approaches, of patientsrecovered from this disease.
Objective. To correlate the results obtained in the Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (Spanish version, CRSG), the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), and the London Chest Activity of Daily Living scale (LCADL) applied in patients recovered from COVID-19 to measure their quality of life and fatigue.
Methods. Retrospective descriptive study conducted on 60 patients recovered from COVID-19, moderate or severe, who were admitted to the pulmonary rehabilitation program of a tertiary care hospital in Bogota, Colombia, between October 1, 2020 and June 30, 2021. Demographic variables were analyzed and the CRSG questionnaire, the FSS scale and the LCADL scale were used to characterize the quality of life and fatigue of the participants, whose results were compared using Spearman’s correlation. The SPSS version 28 software was used for the statistical analysis.
Results. Fatigue is correlated with the quality of life, and when it is identified, it can be intervened through therapeutic exercises in pulmonaryrehabilitation programs, which optimize the expected results.
Conclusions: there is an adequate correlation between the CRSG and LCADL scales; this is important because the application of quality of life scales in patients with SARS-CoV-2 allows us to know the areas that can be intervened through pulmonary rehabilitation programsto achieve an adequate intervention.
