Resumo

Objective: to report the experience of planning and implementing biosafety measures for intraoperative care for suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients. Method: experience report developed in the operating room of a teaching hospital, between March and May 2020. The report consisted of four stages - Formation of the working group for planning the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP); Preparation of the SOP; Implementation and Evaluation of the SOP. Results: the measures implemented were the partial suspension of elective surgeries, relocation of professionals in the risk group, acquisition of personal protective equipment; strengthening of the communication system between teams; control of people and the surgical environment; care with surfaces, equipment and health products used in surgery and team training. Conclusion: the implementation of the SOP, although challenging, was essential for the continuity of safer surgical care in the pandemic context for patients, health workers and the institution.
