Popis: For coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), substantial proportion of secondary transmission may occur before illness onset. During the epidemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome, it was evident that particularly those involved in airway-related procedures such as endotracheal intubation was highly susceptible. In this situation, we anesthesiologist need to rapidly keep updating ourselves with the available literature and adopt and evolve new practices in our regime. In this article, we have tried to suggest evidence-based practices for the perioperative management and operation theater workflow in the existing scenario of the coronavirus pandemic.
