Could a weak breathing muscle be the hidden cause of your long COVID?
NCT ID NCT06105450
Summary
This study aimed to understand why some people who had mild COVID-19 but were not hospitalized still experience long-term breathlessness and fatigue. Researchers tested 25 non-hospitalized Long COVID patients to measure the strength and function of their diaphragm, the main breathing muscle. The goal was to see if weakness in this muscle could explain their ongoing symptoms when standard heart and lung tests show no clear cause.
