COVID 19, effect, aerosol, endoscopyAbstract
Endoscopic procedures, as they are associated with exposure of the upper airway, have a higher risk of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus; so, it is necessary to consider interventions to mitigate or eliminate exposure to it. In this article, we allow ourselves to present a low-cost mitigation strategy, since with the progress of the pandemic it could be in a state of austerity of economic resources, making these devices totally valid.
