In the current Covid situation we should revisit
our targets which may be following
- To reduce panic, confusion, misinformation amongst common man
- To give a clear guideline about who should require Hospitalization for Covid
- To let people at large understand that Remedesivir is “No Sanjivani”
I have some suggestions for consideration
of all of you
- SPO2 Monitoring is the single most important parameter which can be used
to decide who should be hospitalized - WITH More than 96% SPO2 Patients require only isolation and don’t require
any investigations including HRCT - Patients with less than 94 should be recommended Hospitalization
- Patients with SPO2 94 TO 96 SHOULD be closely monitored in his house
- Associated comorbidities may have a bearing on decision making
- Remedesivir is a drug on trial as yet and its efficacy is subject of debate
- Steroids not to be used if no hypoxia on room air
- Remdesivir is only useful in select group of patients
- Convalescent plasma has absolutely no role in critical patients
