	Considerations on the Use of Antivirals, Monoclonal Antibodies, and Other Interventions for the Management of COVID-19 Patients in Latin America and the Caribbean World Health Organization WHO; PAHO; et al. (2022) CC View PDF(43) Download (23) Add to my MEDBOX May 9, 2022.Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, a large number of clinical trials have been planned and developed to assess the effectiveness and safety of various interventions that could prevent hospitalizations and progression to severe disease in people infected with SARS-CoV-2. Currently, the WHO and the PAHO recommend the use of corticosteroids, tocilizumab, baricitinib, and casirivimab e imdevimab (the latter in seronegative COVID-19 patients) and propose the use of sotrovimab, casirivimab/imdevimab, and molnupiravir in patients with non-severe illness who are at high risk for complication Tags: Treatment, COVID-19, Clinical Guidelines, therapeutic agents, Source: https://iris.paho.org/bitstream/handle/1

	Clinical care for severe acute respiratory infection: toolkit: COVID-19 adaptation World Health Organization WHO (2022) C_WHO View PDF(166) Download (341) Add to my MEDBOX First published in 2020, this toolkit is intended for clinicians working in acute care, managing adult and paediatric patients with acute respiratory infection, including severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis and septic shock. The main objective is to provide key tools for use in the care of critically ill patients – from hospital entry to hospital discharge. The 2022 updated version includes new tools and adapted algorithms, checklists, memory aids for COVID-19 and influenza, and the latest clinical evidence regarding clinical management of SARI. It is intended to help clinicians care for SARI patients: from epidemiology of severe acute respiratory infections, screening and triage, infection prevention and control, monitoring of patients, laboratory diagnosis, principles of oxygen therapy and different types of ventilation (invasive and non-invasive), as well as antimicrobial and immunomodulator therapies, to ethical and quality of care assessments. The first edition is availbel in Ukrainian and Russia Tags: clinical care, Training, toolkit, COVID-19, healthcare, Health Workers, Respiratory Infections, Pneumonia, sepsis, septic shock, acute respiratory infections, oxygen, Ventilation, Source: https://apps.who.int/iris/rest/bitstream

	Implementation of simultaneous diagnostic testing for COVID-19 and TB in high TB burden countries Stop TB Partnership; WHO (2022) C_WHO View PDF(58) Download (78) Add to my MEDBOX Tuberculosis (TB) is the deadliest infectious disease in most low- and middle-income countries, claiming more than 4,000 lives each day. The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic has seriously impacted people with pre-existing health conditions. People with TB are usually more vulnerable to other infections, including the novel coronavirus, due to pre-existing lung damage. They are also at higher risk of developing complications from COVID-19 Tags: TB, COVID-19, Policy, Testing, diagnostic, Source: https://www.stoptb.org/file/9883/downloa

	Use of SARS-CoV-2 antigen-detection rapid diagnostic tests for COVID-19 self-testing World Health Organization WHO (2022) C_WHO View PDF(47) Download (26) Add to my MEDBOX 9 March 2022, Timely and accurate diagnostic testing for SARS-CoV-2 is an essential part of a comprehensive COVID-19 response strategy. Ag-RDTs can be performed by individuals in which they collect their own specimen, perform a simple rapid test and interpret their test result themselves at a time and place of their choosing, termed COVID-19 self-testing. This interim guidance provides a new recommendation that COVID-19 self-testing, using SARS-CoV-2 Ag-RDTs, should be offered as part of SARS-CoV-2 testing services. It also includes implementation considerations that can guide decisions on whether, and how, to adopt self-testing in different contexts, including the populations being prioritized; the disease prevalence in that population; and the impact on accessibility of testing, health care services and result reporting Tags: COVID-19, self-testing, RDT, antigen, rapid antigen test, Source: https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/
