This is a retrospective study that evaluated the medical charts of prior patients who were admitted to a hospital with the coronavirus, to trace changes in their function-based capabilities after receiving inpatient rehabilitation. Data related to demographics and comorbidities as well as self-care and functional mobility capabilities were reviewed at admission and discharge. Under the care of an interdisciplinary team and traditional therapy, patients with Covid-19 in this study demonstrated positive recoveries. The results suggested the effectiveness of having an interdisciplinary model and the potential influence of demographics and comorbidities on recovery from the Covid-19 virus.
