Water exercise for long COVID brain fog
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether water-based exercise (like swimming or water aerobics) helps veterans recover from long COVID, especially brain fog and memory problems. If you're a veteran with ongoing thinking issues after COVID-19, this may help you improve your symptoms over 8 months.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a veteran between 18 and 89 years old.
- Your COVID-19 infection must have been diagnosed at least 6 months ago, and it must be confirmed in your medical record.
- You should have ongoing thinking problems (like brain fog or memory trouble) that started within 3 months of your infection and lasted more than 8 weeks.
- You need approval from your primary care doctor to take part in water-based exercise.
