Abstract
There is currently very limited information on the nature and prevalence of post-COVID-19 symptoms after hospital discharge.
A purposive sample of 100 survivors discharged from a large University hospital were assessed 4 to 8 weeks after discharge by a multidisciplinary team of rehabilitation professionals using a specialist telephone screening tool designed to capture symptoms and impact on daily life. EQ-5D-5L telephone version was also completed.
