Overview
History of patients infected with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can include international travel to where COVID-19 is highly prevalent. The most common symptoms that can appear 2 - 14 days after exposure include fever, cough, fatigue, and shortness of breath.
The Cochrane Collaboration has reviewed both the History and Symptoms | Physical Examination[1].
History
- History of patients infected with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can include international travel to where COVID-19 is highly prevalent.
- In the wake of recent developments, and the declaration of COVID-19 to be a pandemic, the above-mentioned condition is actively evolving.
- History should also be focused on the possible exposure to a confirmed COVID-19 patient.
- In case of a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19, thorough and extensive history regarding the close contacts and recent exposure to other healthy/diseased individuals should be taken. Such measures can help in tracking down potential asymptomatic patients.
