Dr. Junaid Hussain

Abstract: The study aimed to assess pulmonary function changes in post COVID-19 discharged patients and their correlation with disease severity. A single-center, hospital based, observational, cross-sectional study was conducted on ICMR laboratory-confirmed non-critical COVID-19 cases. The study assessed pulmonary function using EasyOneR Air with TrueFlowTM technology at one-month and three-month intervals after clinical recovery. Results are showed that moderate and severe cases had significant pulmonary function impairments. Notably, 43.8 of mild cases and 68.8 of moderate cases demonstrated improved outcomes. The study highlights the importance of monitoring pulmonary function in post-COVID?19 patients for appropriate management and rehabilitation.
