COVID-19 rapid guideline: managing the long-term effects of COVID-19 (NG188)

This covers identifying, assessing and managing long-term effects of COVID-19 (‘long COVID’). It includes recommendations about care in all settings for those who have new or ongoing symptoms 4 weeks or more after the start of acute COVID-19, and advice on organising services.

SPS commentary:

This guideline has been developed jointly by NICE, the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) and the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP). It is being developed using a ‘living’ approach, which means that targeted areas of the guideline will be continuously reviewed and updated in response to emerging evidence.
