Aged adults who survive COVID-19 could present several frailty criteria following respiratory distress and may sometimes need to spend several days in an intensive care unit. Considering the physiotherapeutic diagnosis of Mr. P, as well as the agespecific lung physiology of the patient [26] , some cardiopulmonary rehabilitation exercises allowing both the maintenance of ventilator functions and the improvement of hematosis can be proposed. The four assessments performed by the specific COVID-19 evaluation showed an overall improvement of the patient in several functions. In our opinion, it is important to understand that the issue is not only to rescue a patient from their acute respiratory problem, but more so to prevent the functional dependency associated with the infection's consequences, especially in intensive care units where chronic diseases are frequently acquired. ./cache/cord-035099-8yk0dzxf.txt ./txt/cord-035099-8yk0dzxf.txt
