Article Synopsis
  • Many COVID-19 survivors experience long-lasting impacts on their health-related quality of life (HRQoL), particularly after hospitalization, with distinct patterns of recovery observed over a year.
  • The study followed 500 patients and identified three physical HRQoL trajectories ('stable high', 'improving', 'stable low') and four mental HRQoL trajectories ('stable high', 'improving', 'middle declining', 'low').
  • Factors like age, obesity, and education level were linked to lower HRQoL, highlighting the need for ongoing assessments and interventions for those affected.
