Hi Jason,

 

If there is nothing, might it be an approach to look for the effect on prehabilitation on some of the sequelae of Covid 19 and then make some inferences which might point towards possible approaches.

 

Eg ( (lung OR pulmonary OR pneumonia ) AND "prehabilitation"[TI] )

 

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=(+(lung+OR+pulmonary+OR+pneumonia+)++AND++%22prehabilitation%22%5BTI%5D+)

 

( (intubation OR intubated )  AND  intitle:"prehabilitation" )

https://scholar.google.co.uk/scholar?hl=en&q=(%20(intubation%20OR%20intubated%20)%20%20AND%20%20intitle:%22prehabilitation%22%20)

 

http://hinari.summon.serialssolutions.com/#!/search?ho=t&fvf=Discipline,medicine,f&l=en&l=en&q=(%20(intubation%20OR%20intubated%20)%20%20AND%20%20TitleCombined:(prehabilitation)%20)

 

But I suppose I am just confirming that there is not a lot out there that is directly relevant?

 

As prehabilitation is may be to improve strength and fitness, another approach might be to look for the impact of Covid-19 on people who are fit and compare that with those that aren’t,.

 

You’d need to identify  that fitness level is a factor  in improved prognosis rather than an association ( most fit people are younger perhaps and younger fare better?)

 

You might also look at the effect of fitness on the covid  or covid like complications too

 

This may be relevant to current state of knowledge: on https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/8/2655  see https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/8/2655/pdf

 

 

( (Physical Fitness[Mesh] OR Cardiorespiratory Fitness[Mesh] OR exercise[Mesh] ) AND (pneumonia OR intubation ) ) etc.

 

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=%28+%28Physical+Fitness%5BMesh%5D+OR+Cardiorespiratory+Fitness%5BMesh%5D+OR+exercise%5BMesh%5D+%29+AND+%28pneumonia+OR+intubation+%29+%29&filter=years.2014-2020

 

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28843448/?from_term=%28+%28Physical+Fitness%5BMesh%5D+OR+Cardiorespiratory+Fitness%5BMesh%5D+OR+exercise%5BMesh%5D+%29++AND++%28pneumonia+OR+intubation+%29+%29&from_pos=2

 

But as you say it is early days

 

 

 

Best wishes,
