RESULTS: For the 312 patients included, increased physical therapy visit frequency was associated with higher 6-Clicks mobility (b = 3.63; 95% CI = 1.54–5.71) and JH-HLM scores (b = 1.15; 95% CI = 0.37–1.93) at hospital discharge and with increased probability of discharging home (adjusted relative risk = 1.82; 95% CI = 1.25–2.63). CONCLUSION: Patients with COVID-19 demonstrated improved mobility at hospital discharge and higher probability of discharging home with increased frequency and longer mean duration of physical therapy visits. As an exploratory analysis to understand whether the relationships between physical therapy visit frequency or mean visit duration and mobility status at discharge or discharge to home were moderated by patient characteristics, we included interaction terms in separate regression models. ./cache/cord-258395-m9ws5rmv.txt ./txt/cord-258395-m9ws5rmv.txt
