Course Description:

For many patients, lingering Post-COVID-19 symptoms may be the most significant and frustrating consequence of the pandemic. An increasing number of people who were infected experience a wide range of prolonged complaints and symptoms. An ever increasing concern is a that subset of these cases might develop a kind of chronic COVID-19, called Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS CoV-2 (PASC), often referred to as “Long COVID.” Our multi-specialty panel will present their experiences treating these patients over the past two years. Information provided will highlight appropriate referrals, and how to educate, manage and coordinate the medical and emotional care of patients dealing with “Long COVID."

Topics of Discussion:

• Managing Pulmonary Injury in Post-COVID-19 Recovery
• Managing Cardiovascular Injury in Post-COVID-19 Recovery
• Managing Neurological Injury in Post-COVID-Recovery
• Pulmonary, Cardiovascular and Musculo-Skeletal Rehabilitation of the Post-COVID-19 Recovery Patient
• Managing the Psychological Effects on the Patient, their Family and the Community in Post-COVID-19 Recovery
