USE OF HOMEMADE CLOTH MASK IN THE FACE OF THE PANDEMIC BY COVID-19 IN BRAZIL

Fabio Leandro da Silva

Resumo


Introdução: Atualmente, o mundo está vivenciando uma pandemia de COVID-19. Diante da falta de máscaras faciais fabricadas, o Ministério da Saúde recomendou a utilização de máscaras de tecido caseiras. Objetivo: Discutir sobre a eficiência, a indicação e os cuidados acerca do uso de máscaras de tecido caseiras pela população brasileira. Delineamento: Uma análise reflexiva apoiada em referências teóricas disponíveis em bases de busca (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Web of Science, PubMed) e documentos do Ministério da Saúde foi conduzida, sem filtro de tempo, no intuito de obter informações sobre eficiência, indicações e cuidados acerca do uso das máscaras de tecido. Resultados: Pesquisas para verificar a eficácia das máscaras de tecido ainda são necessárias, mas diante da das evidências encontradas e falta de recursos no atual cenário, o emprego da máscara de tecido pode auxiliar na redução de novas infecções. Implicações: É preciso fornecer orientações adequadas para a população acerca da utilização e desinfecção do item, bem como ressaltar a importância do distanciamento social, da etiqueta respiratória, da higienização das mãos e do isolamento social.
