Long COVID-19 symptoms
Effects of stand-alone mindfulness practices for people with long COVID-19 symptoms: A randomized controlled trial
Effects of stand-alone mindfulness practices for people with long COVID-19 symptoms: A randomized controlled trial
This study aims to evaluate the effects of mindfulness practices as a standalone intervention (an 8-week 1.25-hour online mindfulness practices class led by a mindfulness teacher, together with practice audios and a self-help booklet) among people with long COVID-19 symptoms, comparing to a health education control through a randomized controlled trial design. The primary objective is to: 1. Evaluate the effectiveness of the mindfulness practices in improving self-reported severity of long COVID-19 symptoms, functional disability, and overall health immediately after the 8-week intervention (primary time point) and 3 months after the intervention, comparing to the health education control. The secondary objectives are to: 2. Evaluate the effectiveness of the mindfulness practices in reducing proportions of participants having 1+, 3+, and 5+ symptoms in the intervention group immediately and 3 months after the 8-week intervention, compared to the control. 3. Evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness practices in reducing depression, anxiety, health care utilization, and improving mindfulness and health-related quality of life immediately and 3 months after the intervention, compared to the control.

Computer-based simple randomization will be applied. The randomization procedure will be conducted by an independent statistician who is experienced in conducting randomization.
Participants will be asked not to disseminate the intervention contents during the study period to prevent contamination between the intervention and control groups. Due to the nature of the intervention, it is impossible to blind therapists and participants, but the investigators and persons who conduct the statistical analyses will be blinded to treatment allocation.
