traumatology patients, covid 19Abstract
In this study, we review current evidence on how to organize an orthopaedic’s department during the covid-19 pandemic, how to manage patients and how to protect health personnel. We executed these search in PUBMED, Scielo, government health agencies and scientific associations databases. We selected articles based on relevance. We made recommendations for different scenarios of orthopedic practice: outpatient clinic, inpatient care, surgery (elective and emergency) and emergency department. We also made recommendatios for some orthopaedic subspecialties, including spinal surgery, hand surgery and pediatric orthopaedics.Downloads
