Survey: COVID-19 Patients Managed in the Operating Theatre of Belgian Hospitals

Completed

• Conditions: COVID-19

• Registration Number: NCT04376398
• Lead Sponsor: Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain

Brief Summary

COVID-19 pandemic has an important impact on the health care provided by the anesthesiologists. Different societies of anesthesiology have provided guidelines and recommendations on how to manage patients who have been tested positive for COVID-19 or suspected to be infected. It is therefore important to know whether these guidelines have been implemented or were possible to be implemented. Otherwise patients who are presenting COVID-19 often show pulmonary complications. The airway management and the ventilation management of these patients can be therefore challenging and can possibly influence their outcome. It is thus important to obtain a large database with information about the characteristics of these patients, how these patients have been managed and their in-hospital outcome. Information regarding the correct implementation of guidelines is as well necessary for future guidance of health care providers.
