Patients with Long-COVID syndrome (LCS) that have been infected by COVID-19 a year ago and were actually working were included. Participants that had been hospitalized due to COVID-19 were included in the LCS hospitalized group, and participants that had not been hospitalized were included in the LCS non-hospitalized group. The eligible patients were prompted to complete the latest self-report version of the COVID-19 Yorkshire Rehabilitation Screening Tool (C19-YRS). A total of 465 subjects were included in the study. Participants in the LCS hospitalized group were significantly older, had a significantly higher BMI, and had a significantly higher prevalence of women compared to the LCS non-hospitalized group. Additionally, participants in the LCS hospitalized group had obtained significantly worse results in symptom severity, functional disability, and global health perceived subscales of C19-YRS compared to the participants included in the LCS non-hospitalized group. We concluded that disabling symptoms are presented in patients with LCS at working age one year after infection and are higher in LCS hospitalized patients compared to LCS non-hospitalized patients.}, organization = {FPU (“Formación Profesorado Universitario”) grant (FPU:19/02609) of the Spanish Ministry of Education}, organization = {FPU (“Formación Profesorado Universitario”) grant (FPU: 20/01670) from the training of university faculty from the University of Granada}, organization = {FPU (“Formación Profesorado Universitario”) grant (FPU: 21/00451) from the training of university faculty from the University of Granada}, organization = {College of Physiotherapists of Andalucia, Proyect Ref: 06195/21D/MA}, publisher = {MDPI}, keywords = {COVID-19}, keywords = {Long-COVID syndrome}, keywords = {SARS-CoV-2}, keywords = {Disabling symptoms}, keywords = {Persistent symptoms}, title = {Differences of Disabling Symptoms between Previously Hospitalized or Non-Hospitalized CurrentlyWorking Long-COVID Survivors One Year after Infection: A Descriptive Study}, doi = {10.3390/healthcare11162306}, author = {López López, Laura and Calvache Mateo, Andrés and Ortiz Rubio, Araceli and Granados Santiago, María and Heredia Ciuró, Alejandro and Martín-Núñez, Javier and Valenza, Marie Carmen}, }
