Identification of the needs of individuals affected by COVID-19. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focuses on understanding the impact of COVID-19 symptoms on daily life and the needs of those affected in France.
  • A significant portion of participants found their symptoms to be debilitating, impacting their mental and physical health, as well as their social and work lives.
  • Many individuals reported unmet needs for medical and psychological support, and they preferred non-invasive treatments for issues like anosmia over more invasive options.

Article Abstract

Background: The optimal management of COVID-19 symptoms and their sequelae remains an important area of clinical research. Policy makers have little scientific data regarding the effects on the daily life of affected individuals and the identification of their needs. Such data are needed to inform effective care policy.

Methods: We studied 639 people with COVID-19 resident in France via an online questionnaire. They reported their symptoms, effects on daily life, and resulting needs, with particular focus on olfaction.

Results: The results indicate that a majority of participants viewed their symptoms as disabling, with symptoms affecting their physical and mental health, social and professional lives. 60% of the individuals reported having unmet medical, psychological and socio-professional support needs. Finally, affected individuals were concerned about the risk and invasiveness of possible treatments as shown by a preference for non-invasive intervention over surgery to cure anosmia.

Conclusions: It is important that policy makers take these needs into consideration in order to assist affected individuals to regain a normal quality of life.
