About
To follow up the cardiopulmonary function after coronavirus disease 2019 (CoVID-19) infection and compare the effect of a 12-week home-based cardiopulmonary with or without add-on remote rehabilitation on the cardiopulmonary function, emotion and quality of outcome.
Full description
The investigators will recruit the patients post-CoVID infection for a cardiopulmonary function evaluation and a home-based rehabilitation program. The investigators hypothesize that an add-on remote rehabilitation on a home-based rehabilitation has a better effect than a home-based rehabilitation alone on the compliance rate for the exercise, and also a better outcome in terms of cardiopulmonary function testing, 6-minute walking test, physical activities and quality of life, as well as less dyspnea, depression and anxiety.
