With the increasing number of cases and widening geographical spread, the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been classified as one of the class B infectious diseases but prevented and controlled as class A infectious disease by the National Health Commission of China. The diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer patients have been challenged greatly because of extraordinary public health measures since the lung cancer patients are a high-risk population during the COVID-19 outbreak period. Strict protection for lung cancer patients is needed to avoid infection. Lung cancer patients are difficult to differentiate from patients with COVID-19 in terms of clinical symptoms, which will bring great trouble to the clinical work and physical and mental health of lung cancer patients. This review will demonstrate how to applicate appropriate and individual management for lung cancer patients to protect them from COVID-19.
随着新型冠状病毒肺炎(简称新冠肺炎)病例报告的增加,国家卫生健康委员会将新冠肺炎纳入乙类传染病,按照甲类传染病进行管理。在全国各地新冠肺炎防控工作开展的同时,肺癌患者的诊疗工作在新的疫情下受到了极大的挑战。肺癌患者在新冠肺炎疫情下属于高危人群,需要严密防护,避免感染。新冠肺炎患者与肺癌患者在临床症状之间易于混淆,这将给肺癌患者的鉴别诊断以及身心健康带来极大的困扰。文章将从不同层面阐述新冠肺炎疫情下医患如何携手,共同面对肺癌患者的精细化和个体化管理,期望这些建议能帮助肺癌患者平稳度过新冠肺炎的特殊时期。.
