    Objetivo. Presentar el conocimiento producido sobre los desafíos de los servicios de salud para el mantenimiento de las prácticas de atención quirúrgica en tiempos de pandemia por COVID-19. Métodos. Revisión integradora de la literatura, realizada con los descriptores ‘Centros quirúrgicos’ e ‘Infecciones por Coronavírus’ en las bases de datos Medline/PubMed Central, IBECS, LILACS, BDENF, Collects SUS, BIGG, BINACIS, SCIELO, PUBMED, SCIENCE DIRECT y Cochrane Library. Resultados. De 405 estudios analizados 27 cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. Los principales desafíos para los servicios de cirugía durante la pandemia fueron: (i) la reorganización de la práctica del cuidado general en las unidades quirúrgicas, (ii) la gestión y administración de recursos y de las cirugías electivas, (iii) el seguimiento y control de los pacientes preoperatorios a medio plazo, (iv) el mantener la autonomía y la salud mental del paciente y de los profesionales sanitarios en este contexto, y (v) la enseñanza de los residentes sanitarios en el quirófano. Conclusión. Para los servicios de atención quirúrgica los retos ocasionados por el manejo de la alta demanda de pacientes con necesidad del cuidado tuvo como consecuencia la transferencia de recursos propios a otras unidades y la contratación posterior de profesionales para suplir la demanda de estos servicios ante el represamiento de cirugías electivas pospuestas. Este conocimiento permitirá plantear estrategias en la toma de decisiones frente a este escenario, considerando las nuevas olas que se pueden presentar de esta enfermedad.

Revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada com os descritores ‘Centros Cirúrgicos’ e ‘Infecções por Coronavírus’ nas bases de dados Medline/PubMed Central, IBECS, LILACS, BDENF, Coleta SUS, BIGG, BINACIS, SCIELO, PUBMED, SCIENCE DIRECT e Cochrane Library. Resultados. Dos 405 estudos analisados, 27 preencheram os critérios de inclusão. Os principais desafios para os serviços cirúrgicos durante a pandemia foram: (i) a reorganização da clínica geral nas unidades cirúrgicas, (ii) a gestão e administração de recursos e cirurgias eletivas, (iii) o acompanhamento e controle de pacientes pré-operatórios a médio prazo, (iv) manutenção da autonomia e saúde mental do paciente e dos profissionais de saúde nesse contexto, e (v) ensino dos residentes de saúde no centro cirúrgico. Conclusão. Para os serviços de atendimento cirúrgico, os desafios causados pelo gerenciamento da alta demanda de pacientes com necessidade de atendimento resultaram no repasse de recursos próprios para outras unidades e consequente contratação de profissionais para atender a demanda desses serviços devido ao represamento de cirurgias eletivas adiadas. Este conhecimento permitirá propor estratégias na tomada de decisão diante desse cenário, considerando as novas ondas que podem surgir dessa doença.

    Objective: To present the knowledge produced on challenges of health services for maintaining surgical care practices in times of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Methods: This is an integrative literature review, performed with descriptors ‘Operating rooms’ and ‘Coronavirus Infections’ in the MEDLINE/PubMed Central, IBECS, LILACS, BDENF, Coleta SUS, BIGG, BINACIS, SciELO, PubMed, Science Direct, and Cochrane Library databases.

    Results: Of the 405 studies analyzed, 27 met the inclusion criteria. The main challenges for surgical services during the pandemic were: (i) rearrangement of general practice in surgical units; (ii) administration and management of resources and elective surgeries; (iii) follow-up and control of preoperative patients to medium term; (iv) maintenance of patients’ and health professionals’ autonomy and mental health in this context; and (v) teaching health residents in the operating room.

    Conclusion: For surgical care services, the challenges caused by managing the high demand of patients in need of care resulted in the transfer of own resources to other units and the consequent hiring of professionals to meet the demand for these services due to the damming of postponed elective surgeries. This knowledge will allow us to propose strategies in decision making in this scenario, considering the new waves that may arise from this disease.
