Abstract: | Introduction: In the post-infection stage by SARS-CoV-2, the functional capacity of the person may be reduced, requiring admission to rehabilitation units. Objective: To describe an occupational therapy program to improve the level of autonomy in the rehabilitation of individuals after the infection by SARS-CoV-2. Material and methods: Longitudinal observational study of 36 patients admitted between April and June 2020 to an intermediate care facility for functional rehabilitation after SARS-CoV- 2 infection. Participants received an occupational therapy program and their autonomy in activities of daily living was evaluated at admission and discharge. Results: Patients improved their autonomy in basic (P < .001) and instrumental (P < .001) acti- vities of daily living after the treatment. However, patients but did not return to their baseline levels, especially in instrumental activities. Conclusions: Rehabilitation programs that include occupational therapy are effective to improve the level of autonomy in individuals post-infection by SARS-CoV-2. |
