NEW interactive virtual patient scenario: Resuscitation of COVID-19 positive patient

The AKUTNĚ.CZ portal brings you an expressively developed, very up-to-date algorithm: Resuscitation of a COVID-19 positive patient developed by the team of doctors of AKUTNĚ.CZ portal: Martina Kosinova, MD, PhD,  Tereza Prokopová, MD and Tamara Skříšovská, MD on the basis of the recommendations of the British Resuscitation Council and the Surviving Sepsis Campaign were respected. The algorithm was reviewed by a member of the European Resuscitation Council - Jana Djakow, MD, PhD.

The general director of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 infection a world pandemic situation on the 11 th March 2020. At the time, there is neither specific treatment nor vaccination available against COVID-19 infection. Everyone in the population is considered to be susceptible to this infection. The clinical features of COVID-19 infection vary from asymptomatic presentation to severe pneumonia and in the gravest cases can lead to death. In most of the cases (80%), the clinical presentation would correlate to mild respiratory infection and pneumonia. The severe cases with the high risk of death are connected with the elderly patients with comorbidities and chronic medical impairment. This algorithm aims to guide you through the essential safety precautions and deviations from the standard CPR approach, taking into account the risk of spreading the COVID-19 infection from the patient to the medical staff.
