    The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is developing the COVID-19 guideline: management of the long-term effects of COVID-19 and has published the final scoping document and associated project papers. The Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) has produced a summary and included some top tips to aid the care of your patients whilst waiting for the national guidance to be produced.

    Study finds 54 days after discharge, 69% of patients still had fatigue, and 53% were suffering from persistent breathlessness. Almost seven out of 10 patients hospitalised due to coronavirus still suffer from debilitating symptoms more than seven weeks after being discharged, according to a new study. Researchers from the University College London (UCL) division of medicine, in collaboration with with clinicians at the Royal Free London (RFL) and UCL, followed 384 patients who had tested positive and had been treated at Barnet Hospital, the Royal Free Hospital or UCLH. Collectively the average length of stay in hospital was 6.5 days. The team found that 54 days after discharge, 69% of patients were still experiencing fatigue, and 53% were suffering from persistent breathlessness. They also found that 34% still had a cough and 15% reported depression. In addition 38% of chest radiographs (X-rays) remained abnormal and 9% were getting worse. Dr Swapna Mandal, an honorary clinical associate professor at UCL division of medicine, said the data shows so-called long COVID is a real phenomenon and that further research is needed to understand how the symptoms of COVID-19 can be treated over an extended period. She said: "Patients whose COVID-19 illness is serious enough for them to require hospital care often continue to suffer significant symptoms for many weeks after their discharge."

    The COVID-19 pandemic has had far-reaching effects upon people’s lives, health care systems and wider society. As yet there is little research into the number of people at risk of developing ongoing COVID-19. Early attention has been on the acute illness generated by the virus, but it is becoming clear that, for some people,COVID-19 infection is a long term illness. This rapid and dynamic review authored by Dr Elaine Maxwell draws on the lived experience of patients and expert consensus as well as published evidence to better understand the impact of ongoing effects of COVID19, how health and social care services should respond, and what future research questions might be.
