Multidisciplinary Long-Term Recovery
In an effort to provide more comprehensive and coordinated care for COVID-19 patients who continue to endure lingering effects of the disease, University of Utah Health has opened a post-COVID-19 care clinic. The clinic, which began accepting appointments on June 1st, 2021, will offer medical services to self-described COVID-19 “Long Haulers” in the Mountain West who have one or more symptoms that have persisted for weeks or months after initial infection. The Clinic aims to address common long-hauler symptoms including:
- Fatigue
- Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Cough
- Joint pain
- Chest pain
- Memory, concentration, or sleep problems
- Muscle pain or headache
- Fast or pounding heartbeat
- Loss of smell or taste
- Depression or anxiety
- Fever
- Dizziness when standing
- Worsened symptoms after physical or mental activities
Coordinating through a single provider will help specialists concentrate on what they can specifically do for a patient as part of an overall care plan. The clinic will also conduct research on the long-term effects of COVID-19 in hopes that it will lead to better treatments.
