在这项对传染病咨询师的调查中，90%的人报告说，他们的卫生保健机构已经制定了应对严重急性呼吸综合征(SARS)的计划。一些计划内容超出了当前的建议，而另一些则不那么严格。报告了与空中隔离和呼吸器有关的资源问题。61%的受访者对其设施的准备和管理SARS患者的能力表示了一些担忧。疾病控制和预防中心最近起草的关于SARS预防工作的指导意见草案可能有助于解决其中一些问题。
In this survey of infectious diseases consultants, 90% reported that their health care facilities have plans in place to address severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Some plan elements exceed current recommendations, whereas others are less stringent. Resource issues associated with airborne isolation and respirators were reported. Sixty-one percent of the respondents expressed some concern about their facility's preparation and capacity for managing patients with SARS. Recent draft guidance on SARS preparedness from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention may help address some of these issues.
