Highlights The severity of pneumonia and the presence of cardiovascular diseases have a negative impact on the physical aspect of quality of life. Women`s quality of life indicators tend to be worse than men`s. Regular work activity is a factor that improves the physical aspect of the quality of life. AbstractAim. To analyze the relationship between the quality of life (QoL) and the psychological and somatic state of patients 3 months after Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia.Methods. The study is a part of the “Prospective Follow-up Study of Patients after COVID-19 Pneumonia” that involves data on 351 patients (age 53±11) 3 months after hospitalization. Women accounted for 51% of all patients. Cardiologist and clinical psychologist examined cardiovascular and psychological health of patients. We assessed QoL by using the SF-36 survey, and psychometric properties by using the GAD-7, PHQ-9 and PSS-10. We estimated the severity of the COVID-19 using the discharge summaries information.Results. The prevalence of stress symptoms (27,4% vs 5,1%, p = 0,030) and depression (18,00 [13,00–25,00] vs 20,00 [15,00–24,00], p = 0,032) were higher in patients with cardiovascular disorders. Moreover, QoL was lower in this group of patients in all subscales except for “Mental health” and “Mental health aspect”. Women were more 3 times more likely to experience psychological and emotional disorders compared to men (29,1% vs 16,2%, ОR = 2,615 95%; 95% CI 1,695–4,035; p<0,001). At the same time, all QoL indicators in women were significantly lower. For example, the average score on subscales “Mental health aspect” was equal to 47,17 [41,33–51,35] in women and 50,16 [46,65–52,35] in men (p<0,001), and the average score on subscale “Physical health aspect” was equal to 66,32 [60,71–72,62] in women and 63,82 [56,04–70,93] in men (p = 0,003). The QoL scores on physical health subscales were higher in patients with mild and moderate lung lesions. Scores on the “Social functioning” subscale were higher in unmarried patients (87,00 [62,50–100,00] in married patients and 100,00 [75,10–100,00] in unmarried patients; p = 0,017), and scores on the subscale “Physical health aspect” were lower in unemployed patients (48,73 [44,43–52,31] in employed patients and 44,84 [41,32–49,73] in unemployed patients; p<0,001).Conclusion. Тhe presence of cardiovascular disorders and severity of the COVID-19 pneumonia affected the physical aspect of QoL. QoL in women is worse compared with men. Regular work activity improves the physical aspect of QoL. There is a decrease in social activity in married patients after COVID-19 compared to unmarried patients.
