Guide to Pulmonary Critical Care for COVID-19
S. Alan Hoffer, MD, Chair, Critical Care Committee, and Rana Hejal, MD, Medical Director, MICU at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, have authored a guide entitled, “A Neurosurgeon’s Guide to Pulmonary Critical Care for COVID-19” which was endorsed by both the American Academy of Neurological Surgeons and the Congress of Neurological Surgery (CNS). The CNS has placed the guide in their COVID-19 hub on their website to disseminate the information as a resource for national and international neurosurgical audiences. This guide was written to help prepare neurosurgeons in case they are asked to step in to care for COVID patients, as they have been in New York and Michigan.
