摘要

The coronavirus disease 2019 was first reported in Wuhan in December 2019 and then spread rapidly throughout the world.On March 11,2020,the World Health Organization declared coronavirus disease 2019 a pandemic.In response to the pandemic,the management division of West China Hospital oversaw the implementation of hospital-wide emergency measures.In accordance with these measures,the hospital's thoracic surgery ward implemented a new management system by reformulating staff training plans,patient admission procedures,and other systems for managing the ward and protecting perioperative patients.Overall,the ward was successful in restoring normal working order,protecting all staff from occupational exposures,and ensuring the safety of inpatients and their families.
