Abstract
The consequences of a new coronavirus infection have become no less relevant than the symptoms of an acute course of an infectious disease. A variety of physical, cognitive, and neuropsychic symptoms that arose as a result of the transferred COVID-19 form the clinical picture of the post-COVID syndrome, which is manifested by long-term functional limitations that negatively affect the quality of life of patients. Practical experience in the rehabilitation treatment of patients with post-COVID syndrome has shown that the basic condition for successful patient care is a multidisciplinary approach: a set of procedures – dosed and adequately selected physiotherapy exercises, breathing exercises using respiratory simulators, massage, psychotherapy, physiotherapy (including inhalations), electro – and magnetotherapy, vibration therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, reflexology, as well as nutritional support. Nutritional support for patients with post-COVID syndrome is considered as one of the components of complex rehabilitation treatment aimed at correcting the systemic viral inflammatory response and metabolic status in patients with COVID-19. The article analyzes the practical experience of using rehabilitation treatment programs for patients with COVID-19 in outpatient medical organizations with inclusion in the mandatory part of nutritional support based on vitamin and DNA-containing biologically active supplements. The results of the study prove the fact that adequate correction of physical and neuropsychic status in combination with full nutritional support for patients with varying degrees of severity of post-COVID syndrome is an integral part of rehabilitation treatment. Comprehensive rehabilitation treatment of patients with COVID-19, based on the individual selection of not only physical and physiotherapeutic treatment regimens, but also nutritional support, will help to avoid many of the negative consequences of the pathology.
