Abstract
Up to 20% of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 develop cutaneous manifestations such as erythematous rash, rash with petechiae, vesicular rash, acral ischemia, livedo reticularis, and widespread urticaria.1,2 The appropriate classification of these manifestations, crucial for accurate scientific research, depends on physical examination and cannot be correctly assessed with teledermatology. To make classification easier, our suggestion is a simple algorithm that can be easily performed by patients, general practitioners, and intensive care unit professionals on the front lines who are confronting coronavirus disease 2019 and not used to dermatologic examination (Fig 1).
