| Summary: | Over the past two and a half years, the world
has been living in the shadow of the COVID-19
pandemic. Malaysia has been similarly affected,
reporting a total of 4,575,809 cases and 35,784 deaths
till 5th July 2022.1
During this time, the medical field
has learned to fight this virus and its complications.
Public health measures such as mass vaccinations
and infection control precautions were implemented
to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Despite this,
the COVID-19 virus continued to evolve, with no
clear end in sight until today. Therefore, healthcare
practitioners must remain constantly vigilant in the
management of COVID-19 patients, regardless of
whether infection rates spike or wane. This review
aims to demonstrate the principles of management
of COVID-19 patients presenting with trauma. |
