Surgical unit
Surgical activity was organized in order to reduce to a minimum the risk of transmission between SARS-CoV-2 infected and non-infected patients and to protect healthcare operators and professionals. We adapted two existing surgical units to our needs. Issues we had to face were avoiding direct contact between patients and healthcare workers, persistence of SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces [17], risk of delayed transmission between different patients, structural characteristics of already existing settings, costs, and saving of resources like personal protective equipment (PPE).
