    "abstract": "To analyse the effectiveness of a physical exercise programme guided by a mobile health technology system (COVIDReApp) for patients with post-acute COVID-19 syndrome. This syndrome is a multisystem disease that occurs in people with a history of COVID-19 between 1 and 3 months after the onset of the disease. This study will assess the impact of the intervention on fatigue, post-exertional dyspnoea, quality of life, pain severity, physical fitness, anxiety, depression and cognitive function. We also aim to analyse whether there are associations between the variables studied and the evolution of these associations during follow-up.\nA single-blind randomised controlled trial.\nOne hundred patients diagnosed with post-acute COVID-19 will be enrolled and randomly assigned to two groups. The experimental group will perform the intervention through a physical exercise programme guided by the COVIDReApp system, whereas the control group will perform the programme in paper format. Study outcomes will be collected at baseline and at 4, 12 and 24 weeks. Student's \nThis study is based on current evidence regarding exercise prescription recommendations for patients with post-acute COVID-19 syndrome. Our intervention is supported by a solid theoretical framework; however, challenges include tailoring the physical exercise programme to everyone's predominant symptoms and ensuring adherence to the programme.\nNCT05725538.",
