Preoperative SARS-CoV-2 screening: Can it really rule out COVID-19?	2020-06-23		.txt	text/plain	3121	259	56	If viral carriage is not detected by testing, patients may proceed with elective surgery whereby signs and symptoms of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) may arise in the postoperative period, leading to adverse outcomes. 3 While screening with RT-PCR may detect some presymptomatic preoperative patients, the window of diagnostic utility is small, and careful interpretation of negative and positive test results must be considered prior to altering the course of therapy. A positive RT-PCR result identifies a group of patients who may be infected with SARS-CoV-2 and should have elective surgeries delayed. Si la présence virale n'est pas dépistée par un test, les patients peuvent aller de l'avant avec leur chirurgie non urgente, à la suite de laquelle les signes et symptômes d'une atteinte au coronavirus (COVID-19) pourraient survenir en période postopératoire, entraînant des devenirs défavorables.	./cache/cord-314051-dr27bsvt.txt	./txt/cord-314051-dr27bsvt.txt
