Abstract

This work aims to report how COVID-19 pandemic affects the operations of the department of Otolaryngology, in two hospitals in Campania: University Hospital “San Giovanni di Dio and Ruggi d’Aragona” of Salerno and at the hospital “A.O.R.N. A. Cardarelli” of Naples (Italy). In the last years, COVID-19 has become the main type of disease affecting subjects with possible lung infections (pneumonia). SARS-cov-2 infection has been reported as severe acute respiratory syndrome that mainly affects the respiratory system and lungs, but the virus also involved other organs such as cardiac, renal and nervous ones. In the study the attention is turned to the department of Otolaryngology because the operators are very exposed. Data were collected for the year 2019, in the absence of Covid-19, and in the year of the pandemic, 2020. The purpose of the work was to make a comparison between the situation of the department before and during the epidemic from Covid-19 to the individual hospital, in addition a comparison was made between the two hospitals.
