cord-346176-w6uaet7l	Nayeri, Shadi	Conducting Translational Gastrointestinal Research in the Era of COVID-19	2020-08-26		.txt	text/plain	3097	213	49	In this document we provide a suggested roadmap for resuming gastrointestinal translational research activities, emphasising physical distancing and use of personal protective equipment. We discuss modes of virus transmission in enclosed environments [including clinical workplaces and laboratories] and potential risks of exposure in the endoscopy environment for research staff. Efforts focus primarily on physical distancing, use of PHASE personal protective equipment [PPE] , and addressing capacity needs of health care systems to deal with the outbreak. Local and institutional guidance is required to resume translational research activities, including patient interactions. • Invitation of persons currently infected with SARS-CoV-2 from the community into the research environment would cause unnecessary and inappropriate risk of viral transmission. These guidelines address safety precautions in relevant workspaces [including laboratory and endoscopy environments] as well as in specific research activities such as sample collection, handling, and transportation.	./cache/cord-346176-w6uaet7l.txt	./txt/cord-346176-w6uaet7l.txt
