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

NICE guideline

Clinical definitions for the initial illness and long COVID at different times:

• Acute COVID-19: signs and symptoms of COVID-19 for up to 4 weeks.

• Ongoing symptomatic COVID-19: signs and symptoms of COVID-19 from 4 to 12 weeks.

• Post-COVID-19 syndrome: signs and symptoms that develop during or after an infection consistent with COVID-19, continue for more than 12 weeks and are not explained by an alternative diagnosis.

In addition to the clinical case definitions, 'long COVID' is commonly used to describe signs and symptoms that continue or develop after acute COVID-19. It includes both ongoing symptomatic COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 syndrome.
