In Spring 2020, the United States epicenter of COVID-19 was New York City, in which the borough of the Bronx was particularly affected. This Fall, there has been a resurgence of COVID-19 in Europe and the Midwestern United States. We describe our experience transforming our cardiac catheterization laboratories to accommodate an influx of COVID-19 patients so as to provide other hospitals with a potential blueprint. We transformed our pre/postprocedural patient care areas into COVID-19 intensive care and step-down units and maintained emergent invasive care for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction using existing space and personnel.
2020 年春季，美国的新冠疫情中心是纽约市，其中布朗克斯区受到的影响尤为严重。今年秋季，欧洲和美国中西部地区的新冠疫情再度爆发。我们介绍了将心脏导管插入实验室转变为新冠患者收治区的经验，为其他医院提供了潜在的方案。我们将术前/术后患者护理区转变为新冠重症监护和普通病房，并利用现有空间和人员维持急性 ST 段抬高型心肌梗死的紧急有创治疗。
