Respiratory sequelae in patients with bronchial asthma after SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia: a retrospective study in a large academic centre in 2020

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Extract The relationship between asthma and SARS-CoV-2 infection has not been clearly established. It has been suggested that patients with the T2 phenotype may be associated with lower rates of infection than others, and that the infection is less severe [1]. However, the consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with asthma have not been assessed in previous research. The aim of the present study was to establish whether there are differences in the number and/or severity of respiratory sequelae in asthma and non-asthma patients who have suffered SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia.
