Introduction:

Persistent COVID-19 (PC) is a multisystem condition that persists after an initial SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our objective is to define the clinical profile of PC in health workers through a specific Occupational Medicine health surveillance consultation.

Material and methods:

A total of 645 workers who suffered from COVID-19 were studied from the start of the pandemic until 09/30/2022. First by telephone interview and, later, in a face-to-face medical consultation.

Results:

More than 35 symptoms were collected. The most frequent symptoms were asthenia, musculoskeletal pain, headache, joint pain, smell disturbances, and hair loss in the group interviewed by telephone. In the workers seen in the consultation, the most frequent symptoms were asthenia, dry eye, joint pain, memory loss, dyspnea and sleep disorders.

Conclusion:

Health care workers have experienced symptoms similar to those seen in other studies, but less frequently and with less severity.
