Summary

This study followed 211 older adults who were hospitalized with COVID-19 to see how their mobility and daily function changed over time. Researchers measured physical abilities like walking, balance, and thinking skills. The goal is to understand recovery patterns so doctors can create better rehab plans for seniors after a serious COVID-19 illness.
