Abstract

Covid-19’un en önemli özelliklerinden birisi insandan insana bulaşabilmesi ve bulaşın enfekte kişi ile yakın mesafede bulunma sırasında ortama saçılan damlacıklar yoluyla gerçekleşebilmesidir. Bu nedenle acil servisler en riskli alanlar içerisinde yer almaktadır. Covid-19 hastaları acil servise ayaktan veya ambulans ile başvurabilir. Ayaktan başvurular için acil servisin girişinde ya da dış kısmında bir triaj alanı ve acil servisin diğer alanlarından farklı bir yerde muayene alanı düzenlenmelidir. Resüsitasyon gerektiren ambulansla getirilen hastalar resüsitasyon alanına alınmalı, resüsitasyon gerektirmeyen hastalar muayene odasına alınmalı ve değerlendirilmelidir. Bu hastaların taburculuk veya yatış kararları klinik durumları dikkate alınarak verilmeli, yoğun bakım gerektiren hastalar bekletilmeksizin hızla yatırılmalıdır.

Abstract

One of the most important features of Covid-19 is that it can be transmitted from person to person, and the contamination can be achieved by the airbone droplets in close range infected person. For this reason, emergency services are the most risky areas. Covid-19 patients can apply to emergency service by using an ambulance or outpatient. For outpatient applications, a triage area must be organized at the enterance or outside the emergency service and the examination room should be located in the different area then the other departments of emercengy service. Patients brought by ambulance requiring resuscitation should be taken to the resuscitation area, patients not requiring resuscitation should be taken to the examination room and evaluated. The discharge or hospitalization decisions of these patients should be considered by their clinical situations and the patients that needs intensive care must be hospitalizated quickly without waiting.
