The Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) Electronic Health Record (EHR) Cohort Study was a long-term NIH-funded project to understand, prevent, and treat post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC), including Long COVID-19. PEDSnet-led studies that contributed to the larger RECOVER project are found in the collection below.

Investigators from two of the nation’s top health research institutions, Weill Cornell Medicine (WCM) and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) spearhead this study to understand long-haul COVID-19. Dr. Christopher Forrest, professor of pediatrics and health care management at CHOP and the principal investigator (PI) of the PEDSnet Clinical Research Network (CRN); and Dr. Rainu Kaushal, senior associate dean for clinical research and chair of the Department of Population Health Sciences at WCM and PI of the INSIGHT Clinical Research Network (CRN) were selected as two of the three leaders of the Electronic Health Record (EHR) Cohort Studies for the NIH Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) Initiative. Drs. Forrest and Kaushal will lead the PCORnet-based EHR cohort alongside mPIs Dr. Charles Bailey (CHOP); Dr. Thomas Carton (Louisiana Public Health Institute); Dr. Grace Lee (Stanford Children’s Health); and Dr. Mark Weiner (WCM). The PCORnet Adult and Pediatric RECOVER EHR cohorts are enabled by the infrastructure of PCORnet®, the National Patient-Centered Clinical Research Network.
