Abstract :
[en] In December 2019, in Wuhan, a new human
infectious pathology was born, COVID-19, consisting
above all in pneumoniae, induced by the coronavirus
named SARS-CoV-2 because of the respiratory distress it
caused (SARS for severe acute respiratory syndrome, and
CoV for Coronavirus). A real health and planetary crisis
has appeared, much more substantial than that linked to
SARS-CoV-1 in 2002-2004 and to MERS-CoV (Middle East
Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus) in 2012. In addition to
respiratory damage that can be dramatic, this pathology is
complicated by the frequency of cardiovascular, renal and
coagulation diseases. Health care systems have had to
adapt urgently, in the absence of hindsight from the patho- logy, and without effective therapeutic weapons. Through
this review of the literature, we detail our local practices for
the overall management of patients hospitalized in Intensive care.
