Through this study, we intend to highlight the difference in patterns of patients who presented as a surgical emergency during the lockdown period (COVID outbreak). The differences in the profile and management of the patients (surgical emergencies) who were managed in the ED of the non-COVID hospital during the first month of the lockdown period and a similar period in the non-pandemic era (before January 30th in India) have been highlighted in Tables 1 and 2 . There was a marginal increase (17%) in the total number of surgical emergencies during the lockdown period, and the average distance covered by the patients to reach the hospital was around 25 km more (13% more) than the pre-COVID era, though the differences were not statistically significant.	./cache/cord-346664-ilebaqx3.txt	./txt/cord-346664-ilebaqx3.txt
