Summary
This study in eClinicalMedicine aimed to bring together the global evidence on the prevalence of persistent symptoms in people who had experienced Covid-19 infection. The authors found, across the 194 studies included in the systematic review, that 45% of Covid-19 survivors, regardless of hospitalisation status, were experiencing a range of unresolved symptoms at around four months after infection. The authors state that current understanding is limited by heterogeneous study design, follow-up durations and measurement methods, and highlight that definition of subtypes of Long Covid is unclear, which hampers effective treatment and management strategies.
