- Background: The vast majority of covid-19 patients experience non-severe disease. Nonetheless, long-term symptoms may be common and the impact on quality of life is uncertain. This study aims to examine these aspects in a prospective, longitudinal cohort. Methods: Non-hospitalised patients with PCR-confirmed covid-19 were prospectively invited to self-report assessments of background data, symptoms and recovery, illness perception (BIPQ) and health-related quality of life (HR-Qol) measured by EQ5D-VAS. Results: 154 patients were included (mean age 46 years, 69% female). The majority of participants (65%) had symptoms for 1–4 weeks and 12% more than 6 months. The most common symptoms were initially malaise, fatigue, headache, fever and cough and the most common long-term symptoms were impaired physical condition, fatigue, anosmia and headache. The BIPQ index had a negative correlation with the EQ5D-VAS score after the infection, but not with long-term symptoms. Mean differences in the EQ5D-VAS score were significantly lower after the infection and patients with long-term symptoms had a more pronounced negative effect in EQ5D-VAS scores. Conclusion: We found that most patients with non-severe covid-19 reported symptoms for 1–4 weeks and approximately 10% developed long-term symptoms. Non-severe covid-19 seems to have a negative influence on HR-Qol, especially in patients with long-term symptoms and with a greater burden from the disease. None of the initial symptoms could predict the presence of long-term symptoms. © 2023 Society for Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases.
