Abstract:
Persistent manifestations of COVID-19, known as «long COVID» or post-COVID-19 condition (RA02, CIM-11), affect many infected individuals, with a 24-month prevalence depending on the studies context (18 % in a recent Swiss study). The diversity of clinical presentation, the sometimes complex diagnostic methods, and the multidisciplinary management highlight the importance of a holistic approach, with practical advice for assessing work capacity in the outpatient setting. This article offers an update and synthesis of current knowledge concerning post-COVID-19 condition with practical recommendations for primary care medicine, illustrated by real clinical situations.
