A call for a universal definition of post-COVID-19 condition (PCC) JAMANetworkOpen postcovid postcvidcondition pcc longcovid definition universal
By Bhavana KunkalikarApr 10 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent research letter published in the JAMA Network Open Journal, researchers assessed the published definitions of the post-coronavirus disease 2019 condition.
The World Health Organization , Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence have each released their definitions of the post-COVID-19 condition , with some variations between them. According to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology reporting guideline, a descriptive study was conducted on the PCC definition.
Two investigators conducted a review of studies and independently screened abstracts and titles. They also cross-verified a 10% sample of the collected data. Publication dates were employed to estimate the study time when the accurate submission dates were unavailable. Almost 193 papers did not adhere to any of the three PCC definitions, while six papers were submitted for publication before NICE's PCC definition was released. Of 193 papers that did not follow either of the three definitions, 129 employed their own PCC definitions, and 64 did not define PCC.
