Description

Surgical decision-making after SARS-CoV-2 infection is influenced by the presence of comorbidity, infection severity and whether the surgical problem is time-sensitive.


This new paper utilised the OpenSAFELY database to look at practices and outcomes in England, and suggests that some patients can be safely operated within 2 weeks from infection. This podcast goes deeper into the associated issues and implications for clinicians, patients and hospitals.
