SANCHEZ-HERNANDEZ, Nicolás Daniel; CABRERA-VARGAS, Luis Felipe y VILLARREAL-VIANA, Ricardo Adolfo. Communication in times of COVID-19, effective use of modified military visual signals in surgical moments, solution to a problem. rev. colomb. cir. [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.3, pp.373-377. Epub 07-Feb-2021. ISSN 2011-7582. https://doi.org/10.30944/20117582.681.
The pandemic due to the new SARS-CoV-2 has caused a great impact both in the different hospital and non-hospital spaces, causing a large number of deaths due to its great capacity for dissemination. This situation has led us to implement constant change strategies in order to protect the integrity of medical personnel and patients. That is why, guided by large associations such as the World Health Organization, the American College of Surgeons, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Asociación Colombiana de Cirugía, a series of protocols have been proposed for the proper use of elements of personal protection, which at different surgical times makes assertive communication difficult. For the above, we want to present the use of modified military visual signs as the solution to a problem in surgical procedures in times of COVID-19.
