目的：评估为减少冠状病毒病（COVID-19）传播而采取的措施及其在肿瘤内科的应用时机。材料和方法：我们通过多领域调查问卷对意大利艾米利亚罗马涅地区的所有肿瘤内科进行了调查。问题涵盖有关患者、医护人员、降低风险措施和临床试验的项目。结果：共有 12 个中心、861 名医护人员参与了调查。适用于患者和卫生工作者的措施在所有部门部分趋同，但在临床试验领域存在重大分歧。医生（21/208，10.1％）和社会护理人员（13/110，11.8％）中的COVID-19感染率较高。护士感染率为5.7%（24/418）。结论：所有能够降低 COVID-19 感染风险的措施都必须应用于肿瘤内科。尽早引入风险降低措施可能是一个关键问题。
Aim: To assess the measures applied to reduce the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the timing of their application in medical oncology departments. Materials & methods: We surveyed all medical oncology departments from the Italian Emilia Romagna region via a multidomain questionnaire. The questions covered items on patients, healthcare workers, risk reduction measure and clinical trials. Results: A total of 12 centers involving 861 healthcare members joined the survey. The measures applied to patients and health workers partially converged in all the departments while major divergences were found in the clinical trials domain. High rate of COVID-19 infection occurred among medical doctors (21/208, 10.1%) and social care workers (13/110, 11.8%). Rate of infection among nurses was 5.7% (24/418). Conclusion: All measures able to reduce risk of COVID-19 infection must be applied in medical oncology departments. Early introduction of risk reduction measures may be a critical issue.
