Abstract
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been relentlessly battering the world wave after wave in different countries at different rates and times. Emergency departments (EDs) around the globe have had to constantly adapt to this ever-changing influx of information and recommendations by various national and international health agencies. This review compiles the available evidence on the guidelines for triaging, evaluation, and management of critically ill patients with COVID-19 presenting to the ED and in need of emergency resuscitation. The quintessential components of resuscitation focus on airway, breathing, and circulation with good supportive care as the cornerstone of acute management of critically ill COVID-19 patients. Irrational investigations and therapeutics must be avoided during these times of medical uncertainty and antibiotic stewardship should be diligently followed.
