NEW briefing paper on Long COVID published The latest World Physiotherapy briefing paper focuses on safe rehabilitation for people living with Long COVID. World Physiotherapy has published a new briefing paper, Safe rehabilitation approaches for people living with Long COVID: physical activity and exercise. The briefing paper presents considerations for safe rehabilitation specific to physical activity, including exercise or sport, for people living with Long COVID. The statements presented in the briefing paper may be used by physiotherapists, and other healthcare professionals, assessing and treating people living with Long COVID, to consider how post-exertional symptom exacerbation, cardiac impairment, exertional oxygen desaturation, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction impact on safe prescription of rehabilitation, including physical activity. Versions of the briefing paper in Bulgarian, French, Polish, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), and Spanish will be available on the World Physiotherapy website shortly. Volunteer translators are working on versions of the briefing paper in more languages. Download the briefing paper Materials added to positive practice environments campaign  The World Health Professions Alliance (WHPA) has added materials on the mental wellbeing of health professionals. Evidence shows that that poor mental health and wellbeing among health professionals impairs quality of patient care. Poor mental health can drive health professionals away from their caregiving roles, increasing the gap between the supply of health professionals and the demand for their services. As part of its positive practice environments (PPE) campaign, WHPA has produced a series of posters, factsheets and social media graphics on the importance of good mental wellbeing for health professionals. Access the materials New Facebook groups Participants at the World Physiotherapy Congress 2021 online have initiated two Facebook groups to see if there is longer term interest in networking and building a community of practice in the areas of digital health, and hospital-based practice, that could potentially lead to new World Physiotherapy networks. See the groups below for more information and to join.   Physiotherapy in the digital age networking group This Facebook group is open to all physiotherapists around the world interested in digital physiotherapy and/or informatics. Join the Facebook group Hospital based physiotherapists networking group A new Facebook group will help physiotherapists working in a hospital setting (private and public sector) around the world to network.

O Dia Mundial da Fisioterapia 2021 terá como foco a reabilitação e a COVID Persistente

World PT Day 2021 will focus on rehabilitation and Long COVID

The focus for this year’s World PT Day is rehabilitation and Long COVID and the role of physiotherapists in the treatment and management of people affected by Long COVID. 

Long COVID is:

• common – 1 in 10 of people living with Long COVID will exhibit symptoms for a period of 12 weeks or longer 
• a multi-system disease – there are over 200 listed symptoms which occur in variable combinations and can fluctuate in both predictable and unpredictable patterns
• the presence of signs and symptoms that develop during or following an infection consistent with COVID-19, which continue for 12 weeks or more.

Emma Stokes, World Physiotherapy president, said: “The most common symptoms of Long COVID, after six months, include extreme exhaustion, post-exertional symptom exacerbation, and problems with memory and concentration. 

“A physiotherapist can help people living with Long COVID as part of a rehabilitation programme and make sure exercise prescription is approached with care to minimise risk and to ensure exercise programmes are restorative and do not make an individual’s symptoms worse.

“Long COVID is different for everyone. A physiotherapist can help people manage their symptoms and work with them to support their recovery.”

World PT Day toolkit

The World PT Day toolkit includes a range of materials to share the campaign in your country/territory. Please note: the materials may not be amended without the permission of World Physiotherapy.

The information sheets and posters will be available shortly in French and Spanish. We have also had offers from volunteers to translate the materials into more than 50 languages, these will be added to the World Physiotherapy website as and when they become available.

As part of the response to COVID-19, many countries/territories have restrictions about holding large events and gatherings. Please consider this when making plans for World PT Day and make sure you follow any guidelines in your country/territory about social distancing.

You may want to consider developing campaigns and activities on social media, radio and TV.

World Physiotherapy would like to express its sincere thanks to the following physiotherapists (from our member organisations: American Physical Therapy Association, Canadian Physiotherapy Association, Chartered Society of Physiotherapy) for their input and assistance in the production of the materials for World PT Day 2021: Simon Décary, Ted DeChane, Jessica DeMars, Rebecca Martin, and Catherine Thomson.

Informativo da World Physiotherapy - 16/06/2021 Long COVID

 

Resumo de Artigo  da World Physiotherapy enfoca a reabilitação segura para pessoas que vivem com Long COVID (COVID Prolongada)

A reabilitação segura e eficaz é uma parte fundamental da recuperação de uma doença e pode melhorar a função de pessoas que vivem com deficiência.

 

Texto original em inglês

  

World Physiotherapy briefing paper focuses on safe rehabilitation for people living with Long COVID

Safe and effective rehabilitation is a fundamental part of recovery from illness and can improve function for people living with disability. 

World Physiotherapy has published a new briefing paper, Safe rehabilitation approaches for people living with Long COVID: physical activity and exercise. The briefing paper presents considerations for safe rehabilitation specific to physical activity, including exercise or sport, for people living with Long COVID. 

The statements presented in the briefing paper may be used by physiotherapists, and other healthcare professionals, assessing and treating people living with Long COVID, to consider how post-exertional symptom exacerbation, cardiac impairment, exertional oxygen desaturation, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction impact on safe prescription of rehabilitation, including physical activity. 

The paper is the result of efforts from key opinion leaders and stakeholders from across the global community in Long COVID and physiotherapy. Individuals from across the World Physiotherapy regions, community groups, organisations, interdisciplinary clinical practice, and academia have collaborated to identify statements on safe rehabilitation approaches for people living with Long COVID. 

Darren Brown, a physiotherapist, person living with Long COVID and co-founder of Long COVID Physio, said: “This briefing paper is led by people living with Long COVID, in collaboration with community and allies, centring the expertise of those living with and affected by Long COVID. This briefing paper presents vital considerations for the prescription of rehabilitation. Safe and effective rehabilitation is a fundamental part of recovery from illness and can improve function in people living with disability. Millions of people globally are living with Long COVID and experiencing disability, and disability inclusion must be central to all responses to Long COVID. This paper addresses an existing literature gap, to support communities, clinicians, researchers, service providers and policy makers in delivering safe rehabilitation approaches.”
