Abstract Background The number of individuals recovering from severe COVID-19 is increasing rapidly. However, little known about physical behaviours that make up the 24-h cycle within these individuals. This study aimed to describe following hospital admission for at eight months post-discharge including associations with acute illness severity and ongoing symptoms. Methods One thousand seventy-seven patients discharged between March November 2020 were recruited. Using a 14-day wear protocol, wrist-worn accelerometers sent participants after five-month follow-up assessment. Acute was assessed by WHO clinical progression scale, symptoms using four previously reported data-driven recovery clusters. Two existing control populations office workers type 2 diabetes comparators. Results Valid accelerometer data 253 women 462 men included. Women engaged in mean ± SD 14.9 14.7 min/day moderate-to-vigorous activity (MVPA), 12.1 1.7 h/day spent inactive 7.2 1.1 asleep. values 21.0 22.3 12.6 h /day 6.9 h/day, respectively. Over 60% did not have any days containing 30-min bout MVPA. Variability sleep timing approximately women. More associated lower total MVPA recovery. very cluster fewer days/week continuous bouts MVPA, longer time, higher variability timing. Patients post-hospitalisation had levels activity, greater variability, efficiency than similarly aged cohort or those diabetes. Conclusions Those low disrupted patterns several discharge.
