Abstract

Since the beginning of 2020, the new COVID-19 has a significant impact on all facets of living around the world. Despite the fact that there is no specific cure for this disease, the importance of preventive actions cannot be overstated. Prevention of pandemic transmission is especially critical in hospital settings, but if COVID-19 clinics are routinely treating infected patients while adhering to all suggested preventive regulations, clinics that are not yet treating these patients are always on the lookout for COVID-19. As a result, preventive measures for clinics that are not yet on the front lines are specialised, and distance work, an adequate number of diagnostic tests, and protective equipment are required. The formation of interchangeable health-care teams is an important preventive step.  In this article we will discuss the tactic of these hospitals for keeping of operating room personnel during COVID-19 pandemic.
