Abstract

Pulmonary function abnormalities in post-acute-COVID-19-illness survivors could be due to a decrease in both diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon dioxide (DLCO) and transfer coefficient of the lung for carbon monoxide (KCO) [1]. Alveolar-capillary damage, microvascular pathological lesions, or anemia can contribute to reduction of the KCO [1].
