Video Summary
The speaker discussed the long-term outcomes of older adults who survived a COVID hospitalization. They highlighted the importance of studying outcomes other than mortality, such as maintaining functional independence. The speaker presented some preliminary findings from a new longitudinal cohort study, showing that a significant proportion of older COVID survivors experienced increased disability after discharge. They also found that cognitive impairment and symptom burden remained high over the six months after hospitalization. Factors such as frailty, delirium, and comorbidities were associated with worsening disability, while age and severity of illness were only associated with the worst disability trajectory. The prevalence of cognitive impairment was higher than expected for the age group, and delirium during hospitalization was associated with cognitive impairment after discharge. The speaker emphasized the need to evaluate patient-centered outcomes in older adults who survive COVID hospitalization.
