As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spreads globally, hospital departments will need take steps to manage their treatment procedures and wards. The preparations of high-risk departments (infection, respiratory, emergency, and intensive care unit) were relatively well within this pandemic, while low-risk departments may be unprepared. The spine surgery department in The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University in Hefei, China, was used as an example in this study. The spine surgery department took measures to manage the patients, medical staff and wards to avoid the cross-infection within hospital. During the outbreak, no patients or healthcare workers were infected, and no treatment was delayed due to these measures. The prevention and control measures effectively reduced the risk of nosocomial transmission between health workers and patients while providing optimum care. It was a feasible management approach that was applicable to most low-risk and even high-risk departments.
随着 2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）在全球范围内的传播，医院各部门需要采取措施来管理其治疗程序和病房。在此次大流行中，高风险部门（感染科、呼吸科、急诊科和重症监护病房）的准备工作相对较好，而低风险部门可能准备不足。本研究以中国合肥安徽医科大学第一附属医院的脊柱外科为例。脊柱外科采取了管理患者、医务人员和病房的措施，以避免医院内的交叉感染。在疫情期间，没有患者或医护人员感染，也没有因这些措施而延误治疗。这些预防和控制措施有效地降低了医护人员和患者之间院内传播的风险，同时提供了最佳的护理。这是一种可行的管理方法，适用于大多数低风险科室，甚至是高风险科室。
