Changes over time in the PASC index in long COVID

Updated

Abstract

A PASC index score of 12 or higher was used to assess the 12-month trajectory of Long COVID symptoms.

  • Long COVID, also known as post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, presents ongoing symptoms following initial infection.
  • Standardized diagnostic tools for evaluating Long COVID are currently limited.
  • The application of the PASC index may help in understanding the progression of symptoms over a 12-month period.
  • Evaluating symptom trajectories could aid in identifying patterns associated with Long COVID.
