What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. One-year utility score of health related quality of life

    The outcome will be assessed using the Brazilian version of the Euroqol-5D-3L (EQ-5D3L) questionnaire. The utility score derived from the EQ5D-3L ranges from 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health).

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed 12 months after enrollment.

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Utility score of health related quality of life at 3, 6, and 9 months

    The outcome will be assessed using the Brazilian version of the Euroqol-5D-3L (EQ-5D3L) questionnaire. The utility score derived from the EQ5D-3L ranges from 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health).

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3, 6, and 9 months after enrollment.

  2. Incidence of all-cause mortality

    Incidence of all-cause mortality

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  3. Incidence of major cardiovascular events

    Incidence of major cardiovascular events (composite endpoint of non-fatal stroke, non-fatal acute myocardial infarction, or cardiovascular death)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  4. Incidence of hospitalizations

    Incidence of all-cause hospitalizations

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  5. Prevalence of prolonged COVID-19 symptoms

    Prevalence of prolonged COVID-19 symptoms defined as presence of dyspnea, cough, fatigue, muscular weakness, chest discomfort, joint pain, anosmia, hair loss, brain fog, insomnia, among others)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  9. Physical functional status

    Physical functional status as assessed by the modified Barthel index (score ranges from 0 to 100; higher scores indicate less functional dependence).

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  10. Instrumental Activities of Daily Living

    The outcome will be assessed using the Lawton \& Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (the score ranges from 0 to 8, with higher scores indicating less dependence).

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  11. Incidence of return to work or study

    Incidence of return to work or study among patients that were working or studying at the moment of COVID-19 diagnosis.

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after enrollment.

  12. Incidence of new symptomatic COVID-19 infection

    Incidence of new symptomatic COVID-19 infection defined as recurrence of COVID-19-related symptoms with a positive PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 90 days after the index infection.
