Transport of critically ill patients is very risky and difficult. This situation becomes even more important in specific patient groups who diagnosed with COVID-19. Transport of patients with suspected/diagnosed COVID-19 should be performed in accordance with “critical patient transport principles” infectious disease. It has become even more important than before the epidemic that the parties involved in the patient transport process draw clear road maps, accurately identify suspected/diagnosed COVID-19 cases, use existing resources in the most effective way, and reduce the risks to pre-hospital emergency health personnel. During transportation, continuous monitoring of the vital functions of critically ill patients, organization of the necessary equipment and personnel to intervene in risky situations, provision of personal protective equipment to the personnel, disinfection and decontamination of the ambulance are of great importance for the safety of patients and pre-hospital emergency health personnel. How to transfer special patient groups with COVID-19 and what to pay attention to while transportation is focused in this review.

Transport of critically ill patients with compromised vital functions include high risks and challenges for both emergency care professionals and patients. Transport of these critically ill patients should be performed in compliance with the protocols developed in accordance with evidence-based medical recommendations. Pre-hospital emergency health workers perform many different types of transplants, and the transfer of infectious patients with contagious diseases requires a special professional approach. Nowadays, SARSCov-19 suspected/+ patient transfers transmitted by droplets and/or contact have been one of the most common types of transport. The transfer of patients with very high potential for transmission and fatal effects, such as SARSCov-19, should be carried out in accordance with the principles of “critical patient” transport. It is more important than ever before that clear plans are made between the parties involved in patient transport and that suspected/+SARSCov-19 cases are accurately identified so that resources are best managed and used and risks to accompanying personnel are reduced. Providing personal protective equipment to the personnel during transport, disinfection and decontamination of the ambulance are of great importance for the safety of pre-hospital emergency health personnel and patients with contact(-)/Covid-19(-). In this review, the principles and recommendations for the safe delivery of emergency aid ambulances and transports of SARS Cov-19 patients are emphasized.
