“…COVID-19-associated cutaneous manifestations have been increasingly reported in the last few months, garnering attention both from the international scientific community and from the media. A few months after the outbreak of the pandemic, many narrative and systematic reviews concerning the dermatological manifestations of COVID-19 have been published [2, 3, 6, 88-91]. A summary of clinical features, histopathological findings, severity of COVID-19 systemic symptoms and therapeutic options of COVID-19-related skin manifestations has been provided in Table 2.…”

Background: Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) is an ongoing global pandemic caused by the “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2” (SARS-CoV-2), which was isolated for the first time in Wuhan (China) in December 2019. Common symptoms include fever, cough, fatigue, dyspnea and hypogeusia/hyposmia. Among extrapulmonary signs associated with COVID-19, dermatological manifestations have been increasingly reported in the last few months. Summary: The polymorphic nature of COVID-19-associated cutaneous manifestations led our group to propose a classification, which distinguishes the following six main clinical patterns: (i) urticarial rash, (ii) confluent erythematous/maculopapular/morbilliform rash, (iii) papulovesicular exanthem, (iv) chilblain-like acral pattern, (v) livedo reticularis/racemosa-like pattern, (vi) purpuric “vasculitic” pattern. This review summarizes the current knowledge on COVID-19-associated cutaneous manifestations, focusing on clinical features and therapeutic management of each category and attempting to give an overview of the hypothesized pathophysiological mechanisms of these conditions.

“…In West China Hospital, dermatologists have been providing free online and telephone consultations to reduce the flow of patients to the hospital while still meeting their medical needs amid the COVID-19 pandemic [ 28 ]. Dermatologists working side by side with healthcare professionals from other departments have helped treat skin diseases associated with COVID-19 [ 29 , 30 ]. Teleconsultation can be provided by dermatologists for COVID-19 patients; if necessary, bedside consultation is also provided [ 31 ].…”

Introduction Dermatologists play essential roles in providing dermatology consultations to inpatients admitted to hospital for care in another speciality ward. Data on dermatology consultations provided to inpatients admitted to general surgery wards are limited. The aim of this study was to analyze the reasons for and diagnoses of consultations provided by dermatologists to hospitalized patients in a general surgery ward and compare the provisional diagnoses by surgical residents and the final diagnoses by dermatologists. Methods Electronic health records were retrieved for patients admitted to a general surgery ward who received dermatology consultations while inpatients in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 1 September 2015 and 31 August 2020. Sex, age, surgical diagnosis, reason for dermatology consultation, provisional diagnosis by surgical residents, and final diagnosis by dermatologists were reviewed. Results A total of 262 dermatology consultations for 251 patients ( n = 251, 123 women and 128 men) were identified, of whom 240 (95.6%) required only one consultation and 11 (4.4%) required two. Dermatology consultations were classified into three categories: preoperative consultation ( n = 45, 17.9%), postoperative consultation ( n = 65, 25.9%), and consultation unrelated to general surgery diseases or treatments (including surgery) ( n = 141, 56.2%). For consultations falling in the category preoperative consultation, common reasons for the consultation were: to evaluate whether the current treatment plan for previously diagnosed skin diseases needed to be changed; to evaluate and manage skin problems that emerged after admission; to evaluate syphilis; and to evaluate whether previously diagnosed skin diseases would affect surgical incision or wound healing. Drug eruption, dermatitis/eczema, infectious skin disorders, and urticaria were the most common skin diseases in the hospitalized general surgery patients. Only 32 (12.7%) provisional diagnoses were made, of which 25 (78.1%) were correct and seven (21.9%) were incorrect. Surgical residents mainly had difficulty distinguishing herpes zoster, drug eruption, and infectious skin disorders from dermatitis/eczema. Conclusion Our results facilitate the understanding of inpatient dermatology consultations in general surgery wards and may help in the design of future educational materials and/or management guidelines.

“…Muitos pacientes necessitam de cuidados mesmo estando em isolamento, por isso, foi criado a telemedicina, onde o profissional pudesse atender e cuidar do doente sem sair do consultório, e sem o cliente também se expor externamente nas ruas. Pode-se utilizar tal estratégia a fim de orientar quanto ao uso das máscaras de proteção, limpeza doméstica, entre outros cuidados 21 , minimizando a exposição também do profissional com o vírus.…”

Objetivo: Identificar estratégias que podem ser inseridas ou já utilizadas, para promover a saúde dos trabalhadores de enfermagem no enfrentamento do Sars Cov 2 e melhorar a rotina de trabalho. Métodos: Este estudo se afigura como uma revisão integrativa de literatura, este trabalho versa sobre artigos em língua portuguesa, espanhol e inglês, do período de março de 2020 a outubro de 2020. Os critérios de inclusão foram: Texto completo de acesso gratuito, ensaio clínico, meta-Análise, ensaio controlado randomizado e revisão sistemática. Resultados: Foram encontrados ao todo 133 produtos nas bases de dados PubMed, Lilacs e SciELO. Sendo estes 3 duplicados e após a leitura foi deduzido que 120 destes trabalhos não preenchiam os critérios estabelecidos. Conclusão: Foi possível perceber com este estudo, que a maioria dos fatores que afetam a saúde do trabalhador de enfermagem, está diretamente relacionado às questões psíquicas, que devem ser trabalhadas com investimento de apoio psiquiátrico e psicológico frequentemente. A inclusão de tecnologias que mantém o profissional distante a alguns casos, se mostra satisfatório
