On mid February 2020, the World Health Organization declared an outbreak of a new type of respiratory disease originated from Wuhan, China, which was identified as coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). After a long-standing status of COVID-19-free, on March 2 nd , 2020, Indonesia finally broke its first cases. This study aimed to systematically review preventive actions to minimizing the COVID-19 transmissions among health workers. The articles were selected from Google Scholar, World Cat, PROQUEST, PUBMED journal databases published from January to April 2020. The keywords for this review included "COVID-19" or "Corona" and "health behavior" or "health promotion" or "wash hands" or "health workers". A total of 2,809 articles generated from the databases, the authors identified seven articles of preventing the COVID-19 virus outbreak among the health care workers in the world around 2019-2020. The studies reported that health care workers tried to prevent the COVID-19 transmission by doing social distancing, using the right personal protective equipment (PPE), handwashing, screening for in-person visit, and telemedicine.

Penelitian ini bertujuan secara sistematis mengkaji tindakan pencegahan untuk meminimalkan penularan COVID-19 di antara tenaga kesehatan. Artikel-artikel yang digunakan dipilih dari database jurnal Google Scholar, World Cat, PROQUEST, PUBMED yang diterbitkan dari Januari hingga April 2020. Kata kunci untuk penelitian ini meliputi "COVID-19" atau "Corona" dan "perilaku kesehatan" atau "promosi kesehatan" atau "cuci tangan" atau "petugas kesehatan". Sebanyak 2.809 artikel dihasilkan dari pencarian awal, penulis mengidentifikasi tuju artikel untuk mencegah berjangkitnya virus COVID-19 di antara petugas perawatan kesehatan di dunia sekitar tahun 2019-2020. Penelitian melaporkan bahwa petugas layanan kesehatan berusaha mencegah penularan COVID-19 dengan melakukan jarak sosial, menggunakan alat pelindung diri (APD) yang tepat, mencuci tangan, skrining untuk kunjungan, dan telemedicine.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel type of highly contiguous pneumonia caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).Pregnant ladies are vulnerable to the virus infection due to alteration in anatomic and immune system. The chance of infection would apparently rise due to antenatal visits but inadequate medical care facilities during pregnancy can be harmful for both maternal and perinatal outcome. The Government of India has divided the districts of various states into Red, Orange and Green zones. Most of the hospitals from Red and Orange zones have made it mandatory COVID -19 testing for all antenatal patients near term making it easier to isolate and manage patients accordingly. The green zone hospital presently not doing COVID testing for all peripartum patients. Thus, proper maternal health care management at tertiary level is required with minimum exposure and risk in suspected cases especially in green zone hospitals. Here, we present our experience as a team at our Obstetrics and Gynaecology department of pregnant women with upper respiratory tract infection/suspected case of COVID-19 infection during hospitalization in our rural setup and further we will discuss patient triage based on risk level, antenatal care planning and handling emergencies during COVID- 19 lockdown.
