SUMMARY AND CLINICAL APPLICATION
The presented case in this report substantiates the critical need for
cardiopulmonary rehabilitation following the onset of a cardiac event
preceded by the resolution of a recent COVID-19 infection. Under the
usual protocol, following the resolution of COVID-19, individuals are
immediately discharged to home regardless of overt residual symptoms. It
is recommended that patients undergo cardiopulmonary rehabilitation
directly following treatment of a COVID-19 infection, given its
effectiveness and benefits for improved clinical status following a
short treatment period.
