Abstract The difficult epidemiological situation of COVID 19 infection in the world and in the country requires drastic measures to strengthen the material, technical and staffing of primary health care (PHC). Under these circumstances, the preparedness of PHC systems in providing safe patient-centered care and meeting the current health needs of the population while preventing further transmission infection is crucial. Nurses play a crucial role in this process. This article reviews and summarize latest findings of explore the role of primary care nurses and their support measures in response to COVID-19 and to identify challenges to achieving universal health coverage. The study revealed that there is vast panoply of strategic reforms. There are a number of differences and similarities such as mandatory political commitment and leadership, governance and policy, funding and allocation of resources, and engagement of communities and role of other stakeholders.
BACKGROUND: The difficult epidemiological situation of COVID‒19 infection in the world and in the country requires drastic measures to strengthen the material, technical, and staffing of health-care provision in the obstetrics and gynecology practices. It has also created an environment conducive to innovation and the accelerated implementation of new ideas. This is an attempt to discuss the potential implications for obstetrics and gynecologic practice in the world. AIM: This study review gives a comprehensive overview on the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic of the potential implications for obstetrics and gynecologic practice. METHODS: The data-based used in the source search were MEDLINE and PubMed databases using terms such as: COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2, impact of corona virus on the health sector and COVID-19 in obstetrics and gynecology care. We searched several databases for English articles published between January 2020 and February 2022 that discussed or touched on the effects the pandemic had of the potential implications for obstetrics and gynecologic practice in OECD countries. RESULTS: In total, eight relevant articles discuss the relationship between reorganization of the practice of obstetrics and gynecology and other challenges that placed health-care providers under considerable psychological stress. Some studies showed that the discussed extensively the potential implications of COVID-19 for obstetrics and gynecologic practice. CONCLUSION: Successful coping strategies have been adapted to local conditions and the working conditions of staff and, most importantly, patients, so we recommend turning these temporary strategies into permanent solutions that can be quickly applied during future pandemics.
