About this study

The purpose of this cross-sectional study is to explore symptoms and well being of people diagnosed with COVID-19 from the outset of the pandemic until June 2020.

Read the detailed description

All patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in Iceland were referred to the COVID-19 outpatient clinic at Landspitali National University Hospital in Iceland. In the clinic risk assessment was conducted and the patients were accordingly provided with individualized care be it telephone surveillance, onsite examination and treatment, or admission to the hospital. As the the first wave of the pandemic was curbing the necessity of exploring how the patients did and continue to fare after being infected became apparent.

The research questions are:

What were the symptoms that patients expressed during and about three months after being diagnosed with COVID-19? What is the prevalence and intensity of the symptoms that patients expressed during and about three months after being diagnosed with COVID-19 ? How do patients value their health related quality of life, what is their health literacy and sense of security in care during and about three months after being diagnosed with COVID-19 ? How do patients value the nursing care in the outpatient COVID-19 clinic? What are the patients' perception of having caught COVID-19?
