ABSTRACT
In early December 2019, a group of patients with bilateral atypical pneumonia were identified in Wuhan. Later, the coronavirus 2 SARS-CoV-2 was identified as the etiological agent, which would receive the name of COVID-19. Currently, this virus is expanding worldwide, becoming a pandemic. Many of these patients require admission to intensive care units. We present the case of a patient treated and discharged from our unit. Despite not involving management that is out of the ordinary, he is a patient prototype of severe community acquired pneumonia due to coronavirus. Pneumonia that we have not faced before and that we are forced to manage in masse. At the beginning of the disease in Europe, we did not have this type of descriptions so we hope it will be helpful.
RESUMEN
A principios de diciembre de 2019, se identificó en Wuhan un grupo de pacientes que presentaban neumonía atípica bilateral. Posteriormente, se identificó como agente etiológico el coronavirus 2 SARS-CoV-2 que recibiría el nombre de COVID-19. Actualmente, este virus presenta una expansión mundial convirtiéndose en una pandemia. Muchos de estos pacientes requieren ingreso en unidades de cuidados intensivos. Presentamos el caso de un paciente tratado y dado de alta en nuestra Unidad. Pese a no entrañar un manejo que se sale de lo normal, es un paciente prototipo de neumonía de comunidad grave por coronavirus. Una neumonía a la que no nos habíamos enfrentado hasta ahora y que nos vemos obligados a manejarla en masa. Al inicio de la enfermedad en Europa, no contábamos con este tipo de descripciones por lo que esperamos que sea de ayuda.
