Post-discharge respiratory rehabilitation of patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia, as follows: 1. Respiratory training: Combining evidence from patients discharged with severe acute respiratory syndrome and Middle East respiratory syndrome, it was found that generalized weakness, as well as shortness of breath, is the main cause of patients’ limited physical function. Some patients discharged with novel coronavirus pneumonia still have respiratory symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, and difficulty coughing up sputum, especially in severe and Critically ill discharged patients, it is recommended to regularly assess pulmonary function and chest imaging in order to develop a long-term, individualized respiratory rehabilitation program; 2.1. Inspiratory muscle training: For some patients with acquired weakness in the ICU, the inspiratory muscles should be trained, using a respiratory trainer with an initial load of 30% of the maximum inspiratory pressure, 5 inspirations per group, with each inspiratory interval of not less than 6 seconds, doing 6 groups per training, with intergroup Rest for 1 minute between sets, frequency once a day; 2.2. Sputum evacuation training: For patients with sputum retention and difficulty in sputum evacuation, encourage patients to first use postural drainage to evacuate sputum, suggesting to perform postural drainage for the affected lobe of the lung, and let patients keep the lateral position with the healthy lung underneath. If the effect of postural drainage is poor or patients with difficulty in coughing up sputum, active circulatory breathing techniques can be applied; 3. Aerobic exercise: it is an individualized training program. For patients discharged with severe illness or combined with hypertension, heart disease and other underlying diseases, a targeted exercise prescription should be formulated after a comprehensive assessment of their mobility in a professional rehabilitation institution. For patients with mild and common discharges, aerobic exercise at home is recommended. Patients should follow the principle of gradual progression from low to moderate intensity, with exercise frequency of 3-5 times/week and exercise time of 20-40 minutes/time as appropriate; 4.1. Basic activities of daily living intervention: Within 4 weeks after discharge from hospital, focus on improving basic activities of daily living, for patients with severe and critical illnesses For those who are limited in basic activities of daily living due to respiratory distress, they can be instructed to learn the following methods to reduce oxygen consumption: firstly, daily living activities such as transferring, grooming, toileting and bathing can be evaluated, and the focus of the evaluation is to understand whether there are factors such as respiratory distress, pain and weakness in performing these activities of daily living, which cause impairment in activities of daily living, and after the problem points are clarified, the 4.2. Instrumental activities of daily living intervention: 4 weeks after discharge, for patients with mild and severe illnesses, it is necessary to pay attention to higher level activities of daily living such as social participation, so it is recommended to use the instrumental activities of daily living assessment scale to assess and take targeted treatment; 5. The strength training can be divided into three parts: upper limb strength training, lumbar and abdominal core strength training and lower limb strength training; 6. Balance training If the patient can maintain a sitting position but cannot stand, the patient can be trained by shifting the center of gravity in a sitting position, allowing the patient to widen the distance between the two feet, so that he or she can get something on the table alone, and then put it from one end to the other. If there is no relief or aggravation of symptoms during training, please seek medical attention promptly; 7. How to adjust if there is discomfort: If discomfort occurs during the activity, such as when the patient has pain symptoms in the musculoskeletal system, the exercise prescription should be adjusted as appropriate; if weakness occurs, for patients with mild disease after discharge, the intensity of the activity can be increased gradually to medium intensity with monitoring of blood oxygen, for patients with severe disease, it is recommended that the intensity adjustment period should be longer and other methods.
