COVID-19 Pandemic: A Physiotherapy Update

Abstract

Physiotherapists have an essential role in the recovery of patients who require hospital care and/or in intensive care units. However, so far, there is little discussion in literature about the interventions by physiotherapists together with multidisciplinary teams in hospital units that receive COVID-19 patients. In this perspective article, we discuss the role and importance of physiotherapy in the management of COVID-19 cases with focus on patients admitted to hospitals.
