Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Strengths and Limitations: Our study provides a novel contribution characterizing early post-discharge outcomes in patients who have experienced severe COVID-19 disease. In addition, immigrant communities in New York City were hit particularly hard with COVID-19 and our study included patients from diverse backgrounds, with no language exclusions: nearly one in five patients in our study completed the survey through an interpreter. However, it has some limitations. Our survey does not include objective measures of pulmonary function. We compared current state to self-reported pre-COVID state, which may be subject to recall bias; however, this would not affect the post-COVID findings. We also specifically studied the experience of sicker patients---those who required hospitalization and at least 6 liters of oxygen during admission; our results are not generalizable to those with mild COVID-19. Of note, our results may underestimate the severity of post-discharge symptoms among those with severe COVID-19, as we excluded frail elders, people with dementia, and patients from or eligible for long-term care, who might be expected to have worse outcomes, and were unable to reach several patients who had been rehospitalized. Self-reported utilization outcomes such as readmission may also be underreported.29 Longer-term outcomes are still unknown. Generalizability may be limited by its single health system design; however, our health system does encompass multiple hospitals across urb...
