| Core Tip |
The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has had a major impact on pediatric surgery. The diagnostic challenges in the pediatric population and the invasive nature of surgery generate concern for widespread transmission. Each case should be assessed individually, categorized by urgency and managed according to a predesigned workflow diagram. All staff should use appropriate personal protective equipment and high-risk practices should be avoided. Protocols for the organization of the surgical team and hospital infrastructure should be established to maximize safety and efficiency while minimizing transmission. All these measures can help mitigate the effects of Corona coronavirus disease 2019 on pediatric surgery units. |
