    COVID-19 Algorithm: For The Philippine General Hospital

    Uploaded by

    Jay Vee
    This document outlines a COVID-19 screening and management algorithm for the Philippine General Hospital. It describes a process where patients entering the hospital are screened for fever, travel history, and contact with COVID-19 cases. Those meeting criteria are evaluated further in a COVID-19 triage area. Patients under investigation are isolated and tested, while those under monitoring are sent home with self-quarantine advice. Confirmed cases are admitted and managed accordingly, while negative patients are discharged. Contact information is provided for coordinating patient transfers and accessing additional support.
