Abstract

VICENTE PARDO, José Manuel  and  LOPEZ-GUILLEN GARCIA, Araceli. Post-covid or persistent covid syndrome, temporary disability situations, case study, work disability assessment protocol. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.4, pp.374-381.  Epub Jan 15, 2024. ISSN 3020-1160.

Introduction:

Post-COVID Syndrome or Persistent COVID has affected more than 240,000 workers, causing work disability of variable duration and intensity and complex assessment.

Material and Methods:

Searches were carried out in PubMed/MEDLINE, SciELO, for articles published in 2021, and until March 2022, as well as other sources reviewed in the bibliography. For the case study, IT processes were chosen that met SPC characteristics, lasting more than 90 days, analyzing various variables.

Conclusions:

Post-COVID Syndrome presents symptoms that are poor prognostic factors for returning to work. The assessment of work capacity requires a specific protocol for evaluating functional limitations and their translation to various tasks that may be compromised.

Keywords : Post-COVID Syndrome; Laboral inhability; return to work.
