Abstract in brief

  • This study introduces a new, contactless way to monitor long-term respiratory and behavioral symptoms of older adults with COVID-19 at home using radio signal sensors, providing continuous and passive data collection.
  • Over a 3-month period, researchers tracked three residents in an assisted living facility, recording thousands of measurements related to gait, sleep, and respiration, and found differences between symptomatic and asymptomatic patients, as well as long-lasting sleep and motor issues after recovery.
  • The findings highlight that respiratory and behavioral changes can persist months after COVID-19 infection, suggesting these could be important aspects of the disease’s long-term effects, and demonstrate that contactless sensors are a promising method for studying COVID recovery in older populations.
