Intravascular Access in Suspected/Confirmed COVID-19 Patient

December 17, 2020 updated by: Lukasz Szarpak, Lazarski University

Comparison of Intraosseous Versus Intravenous Access in Suspected/Confirmed COVID-19 Patient in Prehospital Setting

The current COVID-19 pandemic, this is especially since the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is thought to occur mainly through respiratory droplets generated by coughing and sneezing, by direct contact with contaminated surfaces and because in a large number of patients COVID-19 disease may be asymptomatic. As recommended by the CDC medical personnel should be equipped with full personal protective equipment (PPE) for AGP in contact with suspected/confirmed COVID-19 patient. Therefore, it is reasonable to search for the most effective methods of intravascular access in those conditions.
