Esettanulmány a koronavírus-járvány kezelési lehetôségeirôl 2020 tavaszán a budapesti Olajág Idôsek Otthonában

During the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, elderly people in long-term nursing homes were espe - cially risks exposed. In this study, the au - thors analyse the causes of local outbreak at the Olajag Elderly Home Vezer street facility in Budapest and the means and ways to curb the spreading of infection. They summarise the measures, which proved to be effective in isolation and treat - ing the patients. The number of infected residents as well as the course of the disease are demonstrated by statistical data. The authors consider as pre-eminently important to identify asymptomatic but in - fec ted residents, further the rapid introduc - tion of screening tests, strict compliance with protocols, patient path regulation and the use of enhanced, supportive communication. © 2020 Literatura Medica Publishing House.
