Journal Title: TMR Integrative Medicine - Year 2021, Vol 5, Issue 22
Abstract
Background: To analyze the clinical features of convalescent individuals with novel coronavirus-infected pneumonia (novel coronavirus pneumonia) at rehabilitation station in Wuhan. Methods: 712 patients in the convalescence period of novel coronavirus pneumonia isolated and observed at the rehabilitation station were investigated by collecting their basic data, clinical syndrome features, and tongue manifestations. The clinical syndrome features were analyzed based on guidelines of Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Novel Coronavirus-infected Pneumonia (National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China, 7th Trial Edition). Results: Cough (24.86%), chest tightness and shortness of breath (23.17%), and fatigue (16.57%) were the main symptoms of patients in the convalescence period of novel coronavirus pneumonia. Their tongue appearance was mostly characterized by redness (88.65%), thick coating (67.25%), greasy coating (49.78%) and white coating (76.86%). Conclusion: Compared with the ordinary / mild patients, cough and anorexia symptoms were more common in the severe / critical patients. In convalescent patients, red and fat tongue with thick greasy fur were common.
