Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The current state of knowledge shows the presence of respiratory sequelae after acute infection with COVID-19 and the importance of these long-term respiratory dysfunctions have to be determined.

Aim of our study is describe diaphragmatic amplitude using diaphragm ultrasonography in patients recovering from SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia at 3 and 6 months after the acute episode.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: diaphragm ultrasonography
N/A

Detailed Description

patients with confirmed COVID-19 who had been discharged from CHRU Hospital in Limoges (France) will be included to follow the impact of severe acute respiratory syndrom coronavirus 2 on pulmonary function, diaphragm function and exercice capacity. Surviving patients will be evaluated at 3 and 6 months after hospital discharge. The assesment will include diaphragm ultrasonography, spirometry (FEV1,FVC), carbon monoxide transfert (TLCO adjusted for haemoglobin), inspiratory an expiratory respiratory muscle strength (Pimax and Pemax) and 6 minutes walk distance (6MWD).The main outcome will be diaphragm excursion assessed by ultrasound.

For all patients with confirmed COVID-19 who had been discharged from CHRU Hospital in Limoges (France) : diaphragm ultrasonography at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  2. the difference in diaphragmatic amplitude between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    Diaphragmatic amplitude at M0 and M3

  3. the difference in FEV1 between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    FEV1 at M0 and M3.

  4. the difference in FVC between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    FVC at M0 and M3.

  5. the difference in DLCO between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    DLCO at M0 and M3.

  6. the difference in Pi max and Pe max between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    PI max and PE max at M0 and M3

  7. dyspnoea between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    mMRC dyspnoea scale at M0 and M3.

  8. the functional capacity between M0 and M3. [at 3 (M0) and 6 months (M3) after the end of his hospitalisation at the CHU of Limoges]

    6-minutes walk test distance at M0 and M3.
