Furthermore, although many recommendations suggest to consider performing stoma surgery instead of primary anastomosis in high-risk emergency surgery 14,20-23 none of those consider the potential problems related to reduced availability of stoma care services and reduced access in the hospital to caregivers for stoma training which may represent a problem for elderly and frail patients after discharge. Second, in-hospital stoma training pathways should be implemented to allow patients to confidently manage their own stomas independently prior to discharge and reduce the need for home nursing care 37 . In addition to standard precautions for infection prevention and control (i.e. correct use of PPE, keeping appropriate interpersonal distance, proper hand washing) indoor air quality should be preserved to limit the SARS-CoV-2 spread, and to protect patients and healthcare workers.	./cache/cord-345288-qyz83xx2.txt	./txt/cord-345288-qyz83xx2.txt
