COVID-19 has rapidly become a pandemic emergency, distressing health systems in each affected country. COVID-19 determines the need for healthcare in a large number of people in an extremely short time and, like a tsunami wave, overruns emergency, infectious diseases, and pneumology departments as well as intensive care units, choking healthcare services. Rehabilitation services are also affected by this epidemic which forces radical changes both in the organization and in the operating methods. In the absence of reference literature on this issue, this report aims to provide a background documentation to support physicians and healthcare personnel involved in neurorehabilitation and rehabilitation care.
新型冠状病毒肺炎（COVID-19）已迅速演变成一场大流行紧急事件，令每个受影响国家的卫生系统不堪重负。COVID-19在极短时间内使大量人群产生医疗需求，犹如海啸般冲击着急诊科、传染病科、肺病科以及重症监护病房，令医疗服务陷入困境。康复服务也受到这场疫情的影响，迫使组织和运作方式发生根本性变化。鉴于缺乏关于这一问题的参考文献，本报告旨在提供一份背景资料，以支持参与神经康复和康复护理的医生及医护人员。
