To clarify the current global surgical practice under the COVID-19 pandemic particularly focusing on the preoperative screening of asymptomatic COVID-19 patients, we conducted a cross-sectional online survey on surgical practice. The survey was administered to surgeons worldwide through international surgical societies, social media and personal contacts during April 2 to April 8, 2020. The results were analyzed by country’s cumulative deaths number by April 8, 2020 (high risk ,>5000; intermediate risk, 100-5000; low risk, <100) (https://covid19.who.int/).

Abstract

To clarify the current global surgical practice under the COVID-19 pandemic particularly focusing on the preoperative screening of asymptomatic COVID-19 patients, we conducted a cross-sectional online survey on surgical practice. The survey was administered to surgeons worldwide through international surgical societies, social media and personal contacts during April 2 to April 8, 2020. The results were analyzed by country’s cumulative deaths number by April 8, 2020 (high risk ,>5000; intermediate risk, 100-5000; low risk, <100) (https://covid19.who.int/).
