COVID-19 Pandemisinde Ameliyathane Yönetimi.

Coronavirus disease causes acute severe respiratory syndrome. It is an infectious respiratory disease caused by the corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease first appeared in 2019 in Wuhan, China. It spread worldwide, causing the coronavirus epidemic. The disease was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020. In our country, the Minister of Health announced that the first case of COVID-19 was seen on March 10, 2020. Administrators, healthcare professionals, and researchers have sought to establish policies and procedures for both appropriate treatment and prevention of spread. The precautions to be taken during the surgery of patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19, the things to be done in the operating room, the workflow and processes were determined. The Covid-19 pandemic is making profound changes in working conditions and lifestyles. The epidemic is a public health problem. The health sector is the most vulnerable and directly facing risk in the epidemic. The health system should not lose its function and be able to carry the heavy load. For this purpose, it is important to protect health personnel and centers from contamination as much as possible. For this purpose, there is a need to establish appropriate protocols and guidelines. The surgical process of a patient with a diagnosis of Covid-19 poses a risk for healthcare professionals and other patients. We believe that proper and correct implementation of the recommendations in the guidelines is important for healthcare professionals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
