Abstract

Since December 2019, the outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has become the most serious public health issue. As the special population with immature immune function, newborns with COVID-19 have been reported. Newborns with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 should be transferred to designated hospitals for isolation treatment. An emergency transfer response plan for newborns with COVID-19 has been worked out. This plan puts forward the indications for neonatal COVID-19 transfer, organization management, protection strategies for medical staff, work procedures, and disinfection methods for transfer equipment, in order to provide guidance and suggestions for the inter-hospital transfer of suspected or confirmed neonatal COVID-19.

自2019年12月以来,2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)疫情已成为目前最严峻的公共卫生问题。新生儿作为免疫功能不成熟的特殊人群,已有COVID-19病例报道。鉴于疑似/确诊COVID-19新生儿应转运到定点医院隔离救治,为建立健全相应急救转运机制,特编写COVID-19新生儿急救转运预案。该预案提出了新生儿COVID-19的转运指征、组织管理、防护策略、工作流程、消毒处置方法等,旨在为疑似或确诊新生儿COVID-19的院间转运提供相关指导与建议。
