COVID-19 Pandemi Sürecinde Biyokimya Laboratuvarı Akış ve Güvenlik Prosedürleri: Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Deneyimi

Coronavirüs Hastalığı 2019 salgını (COVID-19) ilk olarak Aralık 2019’da Çin’de başladı ve Mart 2020’de küresel bir pandemiye dönüştü. COVID-19 vaka sayısı yüksek olan Zonguldak’ta Üniversite hastanesinde Biyokimya Laboratuvarı için, iş akışını organize etmek ve laboratuvarda güvenli bir çalışma ortamını geliştirmek için kendi rehberimizi oluşturduk. Bu rehber, COVID 19 salgını sırasında diğer biyokimya laboratuvarları için değerli bilgiler sağlayabilir.
