SARS-CoV-2 Positive Patient Nurse Care Plan in self-insulating and stable symptomatology

Abstract

This research work concerns the current topic of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, who according to WHO "is the most recently discovered infectious disease caused by coronavirus. This new virus and disease became unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. COVID-19 is now a pandemic affecting many countries globally." Importantly, coronaviruses (CoVs) are a large family of respiratory viruses that can cause diseases ranging from the common cold to Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), both of zoonotic origin and induce a fatal infection of the lower respiratory tract, as well as extrapulmonary manifestations. The new CoV, officially designated as SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is a member of lineage B of β-CoV, which was first identified in Wuhan by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It is of general character and importance to make the particularities of SARs-Cov-2 aware as well as relevant to specific nursing personnel make use of a Nurse Care Process that is useful in the development and planning of the correct care to be carried out in patients presenting the pathology.
