ABSTRACT

Abstract The current spread of SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) and its disease COVID-19, has confronted society with a paradigm shift in all fields: political, social, religious, economic, and healthcare is no exception. This has created challenges for the adequate and safe delivery of services for patients and healthcare workers. Notwithstanding the global efforts to contain the spread of the disease, the outbreak continues to escalate. COVID-19 is currently the disease receiving the most attention worldwide; however, patients continue to present other conditions that demand the same level of care to be effectively controlled, so that they do not become another healthcare concern, as a result of potential secondary complications due to poor care. This reflection article gives recommendations to care for patients requiring diagnostic and/or therapeutic procedures under sedation, outside the operating room, keeping the current standards and biosecurity protocols in mind. Moreover, it provides a brief description of the disease, symptoms, diagnosis and transmission routes.


Resumen La actual propagación del SARS-COV-2 (Coronavirus 2 del síndrome respiratorio agudo severo) y su enfermedad, la COVID-19, ha enfrentado a la sociedad a un cambio de paradigmas en todos los aspectos: político, social, religioso, económico, y el área de la salud no es la excepción; lo que ha generado retos para la adecuada prestación de servicios dentro del marco de seguridad para los pacientes y el personal asistencial. A pesar de los esfuerzos mundiales para contener la propagación de la enfermedad, el brote sigue en aumento. La COVID-19 es en este momento la enfermedad de mayor atención en el mundo, pero los pacientes siguen presentando otras patologías que requieren igual atención para ser controladas de manera eficaz, de modo que no se conviertan en otro problema para los sistemas de salud por las posibles complicaciones secundarias a la desatención de las mismas. Este artículo de reflexión brinda recomendaciones para la atención de pacientes que requieren procedimientos diagnósticos y/o terapéuticos bajo sedación fuera de quirófanos, teniendo en cuenta la normatividad actual y los protocolos de bioseguridad vigentes; adicionalmente, proporciona una breve descripción de la enfermedad, síntomas, diagnóstico y rutas de transmisión.
