RESUMO
The appearance of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in 2020 caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus set tasks for doctors of various specialties to quickly diagnose, treat, and develop effective rehabilitation measures. The medical community's knowledge about the respiratory tract lesions pathogenesis course in COVID-19 is going to improve, but the key accents placement in understanding this pathology course continues today. Suspected SARS-CoV-2 virus reference points are as follows: vascular endothelial dysfunction, coagulopathy, thrombosis resembling the antiphospholipid syndrome. Treatment is carried out in accordance with general recommendations aimed at the average patient despite the higher secondary infectious complications risk in patients suffering from cancer and a high severe COVID-19 risk. A successful inpatient treatment experience in patients suffering from comorbid pulmonary pathology and a new coronavirus infection is demonstrated on a separate example. The treatment duration and the complexity of selecting a rehabilitation measures course were due to the patient's history of central squamous cell lung cancer, surgical intervention (bilobectomy), radio- and chemotherapy, as well as complications in the form of pulmonary embolism. The concomitant respiratory pathology was differentiated (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) during examination and treatment and basic therapy was selected, which made the medical rehabilitation stage more effective. The patient's condition required a more careful selection of combined anti-inflammatory, broncholytic, mucolytic, and antibacterial therapy than in patients without concomitant pathology. Treatment and a complex of rehabilitation measures, normalization of respiratory function, compensation for concomitant bronchopulmonary pathology was possible to be achieves as a result of the diagnosis of concomitant bronchopulmonary pathology. Careful diagnostic search and optimal treatment of all somatic pathology are important factors in the selection of adequate therapy for elderly patients suffering from coronavirus infection with comorbid pulmonary pathology.

RESUMO
The World Health Organization has declared the coronavirus an emergency of international importance. In this regard, non-woven materials (NM) are recommended to be actively introduced and used to stop the spread of coronavirus in products for various purposes, including medical devices. Synthetic polyester fillers in pillows, blankets, mattresses, insulation in clothes and buildings are nonbiological non-cellular structure. It does not spread bacteria, which, in turn, like living organisms, microorganisms, can be a medium for viral spread. The fibers used in the production of Hollofiber® materials have a hygroscopicity of less than 1%, they do not have a protein component or a plant cell, which can be a nutrient medium for microorganisms and, accordingly, viruses spread through them. However, the issues of viral transfer and virulence remain relevant and problematic. One effective solution is radiation sterilization. The problem is that not all nonwoven materials (NM) are able to withstand exposure to radiation sterilization. In connection with this object of research, a high-tech NM of domestic production was selected. Thus, the study of the effect of radiation sterilization on Hollofiber® material is an urgent task. As a result of studying Hollofayber® NM after radiation in the dose range from 20-60 kGy, there were no significant changes in consumer characteristics. Thus, NM Hollofayber® PROFI, article P 35191, Hollofayber® SOFT, article P 5197, Plollofayber® SOFT, article P 5200 are recommended for the manufacture of medical devices. © 2021 Ivanovo State University of Chemistry and Technology.

RESUMO
The development of coronavirus infection has put all other diseases on the back burner, including routine surgical operations. However, delaying the timing of surgical intervention also negatively affects the health of patients, as the development of the disease continues. In addition, individual patients who are being treated at home for a number of reasons also need the advice of a professional surgeon, and it is not always possible to conduct such a consultation in person with the current period of pandemic development. For this reason, the need for surgical intervention, as well as the organization of patient consulting should be carried out in modern conditions, taking into account compliance with certain safety measures for the health of the doctor and the patient. This task can be solved by using virtual technologies in surgical practice, which contribute to the possibility of organizing remote surgical care and allow realizing medical potential in compliance with antiviral protection measures.
