    La pandemia de COVID-19 surgió en Wuhan a finales de diciembre de 2019, propagándose por todo el mundo con un alto nivel de contagio. La COVID-19 engloba una gran cantidad de secuelas en el sistema respiratorio, lo que conlleva la necesidad de una intensa intervención fisioterapéutica. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la efectividad de la fisioterapia pulmonar post-COVID-19 en un paciente de una Clínica Escuela de Fisioterapia, en la ciudad de Montes Claros, MG. Para ello, se utilizó como metodología un estudio de caso, que se realizó con un paciente masculino, 62 años, mestizo, divorciado, con un hijo, sin informe de enfermedades previas, de la ciudad de Montes Azul-MG. ingresado en una Clínica Escuela de Fisioterapia con Síndrome Respiratorio Agudo Severo, post-COVID-19, siendo sometido a pruebas para evaluar sus percepciones de esfuerzo mediante la escala de Borg modificada, es decir, el Test de Caminata de Seis Minutos y la fuerza muscular basada en la escala de Kendall. Dada la conducta realizada, se concluye que la rehabilitación fisioterapéutica constituye un recurso importante en el tratamiento post-COVID-19, en términos de la proporción de secuelas provocadas por dicha infección.

    The COVID-19 pandemic emerged in Wuhan in late December 2019, spreading across the world with a high rate of contamination. The COVID-19 covers a large number of sequelae in the respiratory system, which entails a need for intense physiotherapy intervention. Thus, it was objected in the present study to evaluate the effectiveness of post-COVID-19 pulmonary physiotherapy in a patient at a Physiotherapy Clinic School in the city of Montes Claros, MG. For this, it was used the case study as a methodology, which was carried out with a male patient, 62 years old, brown, divorced, with one child, with no report of previous illnesses, coming from the city of Montes Azul-MG, admitted in a Physiotherapy Clinic School with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, post-COVID-19, being submitted to tests to assess their perceptions of exertion through the modified Borg scale, that is, the Six-Minute Walking Test and the muscle strength based on the Kendall scale. In view of the conduct performed, it is concluded that physiotherapy rehabilitation is an important resource in post-Covid-19 treatment, with regard to the proportion of sequelae caused by such infection.
