Elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery, which is preferably not delayed for more than 1 or 2 weeks. Asymptomatic. A negative PCR 24 hours before would be enough not to use PPE in the operating room during induction, intubation, maintenance and extubation? Is COVid guarantees negative?.
Is laparoscopic surgery safe in this context? Two PCRs at intervals of 72-96 hours plus isolation would be better?
