Prolonged Symptoms and Reasons for Consultation in Town Medicine Associated With COVID-19 Infection in the Hauts de France Region (COCO_Vi_LATE)

Several publications document the occurrence of prolonged or late-onset symptoms beyond 3 weeks after the first clinical manifestations of SARS-COV2 infection. These manifestations may be related to thromboembolic or inflammatory events or other mechanisms that are not yet well understood. The psychosomatic origin secondary to psychiatric disorders prior to the infection or in reaction to it is also to be evoked. The identification of the clinical manifestations observed, and their clinical and paraclinical evolution are essential to better understand the natural evolution of COVID-19, to specify the physiopathological mechanisms and to identify potential avenues of management for the patients. In addition, the impact of COVID-19 infection on primary care visits is not known. In general practice, these patients benefit from explorations and even diagnoses that may explain the persistence of symptoms (autoimmune diseases, thrombosis, somatoform disorders, hyperventilation syndrome, etc.).

The objective of the COCO_Vi_LATE project is to carry out a cross-sectional study of patients presenting persistent and/or recurrent symptoms after an infection with SARS-COV-2 who will be compared to individuals with a short form of infection with COVID-19
