Abstract

FREIRE-FIGUEROA, Francisco et al. Recommendations for respiratory physiotherapy in the context of suspicious and confirmed patient for Covid-19 in hospital at home. Hosp. domic. [online]. 2020, vol.4, n.3, pp.133-152.  Epub Aug 10, 2020. ISSN 2530-5115.  https://dx.doi.org/10.22585/hospdomic.v4i3.107.

Porpuse:

Given the health crisis that the country and the world are currently experiencing, this document was prepared by the autonomous initiative of kinesiologists from twelve Hospital at Home units of public hospitals in Chile, in order to unify criteria based on their experiences and the available scientific evidence in order to carry out safe respiratory physiotherapy care in patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19. In addition, this document is intended to be a guide for those who need to protocolize and / or standardize their care at Hospital at home, and can be adapted according to the need and availability of resources and infrastructure of each unit. It is important to note that this document may vary depending on the evolution of this pandemic and the updating of scientific evidence.

Scope:

This document is designed to be applied in the home of adult and pediatric patients admitted to Hospital at Home Units (UHD) with suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection or with a positive result for COVID-19.
