ABSTRACT

The current COVID-19 pandemic has affected the world population with alarming numbers of contaminated and fatalities, with a depletion of the logistical resources of health systems. There will be few suspected or confirmed patients of this disease who will need urgent surgical treatment. The objective of the study is to present a set of measures to guarantee the best care of these patients, reduce the possibility of contagion between patients, health personnel and the development of postoperative complications. A review of the updated literature on the subject was carried out in digital format, in publications in English and Spanish. The reorganization of surgical services is necessary to guarantee the best care for patients, safeguard health personnel, and use the resources of the health system properly.
