Resumo: | Introduction: Cancer patients are more likely to contract coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to the fragility that the disease and its treatment cause. The most important measure during the pandemic is prevention against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in order to not interrupt cancer treatment or worsen the prognosis of these patients. Objective: To high light information that contributes to strengthen COVID-19 prevention actions and adequate management of cancer patients in times of pandemic. Method: An integrative literature review was carried out with searches in the databases of the Virtual Health Library and Google Scholar. They were crossed with the Boolean operator and the descriptors in Portuguese and in English, “neoplasms”, “disease prevention”, “coronavirus” and “pandemics”. Inclusion criteria were full articles, published and available in full. Exclusion criteria: irrelevance to the theme and paid access. Eventually, 26 publications were identified and 17 were selected. Results: Most publications found that prevention measures include staying at home, hands and objects hygiene, dissemination of knowledge on how to prevent COVID-19. In addition to limit patients in hospital settings, modify treatment modalities to reduce the likelihood of myelosuppression and postpone surgical intervention for benign tumors. Conclusion: The adoption of specific measures and management for cancer patients reduces the possibility of infection by SARS-CoV-2 through practices as: individual hygiene and protection measures, avoiding agglomerations, remote medicine, alternative treatments and postponement of surgical interventions. |

La medida más importante durante la pandemia es la prevención contra el síndrome respiratorio agudo grave del coronavírus 2 (Sars-CoV-2), para no interrumpir el tratamiento del cáncer o empeorar el pronóstico de estos pacientes. Objetivo: Resaltar el conocimiento que contribuye al fortalecimiento de las acciones de prevención del Covid-19 y el manejo adecuado de los pacientes con cáncer en tiempos de pandemia. Método: Revisión bibliográfica integradora con búsquedas en las bases de datos de la Biblioteca Virtual en Salud y Google Scholar. Se cruzaron con el operador booleano and y los descriptores en portugués e inglés, “neoplasias”, “prevención de enfermedades”, “coronavirus” y “pandemias”. Criterios de inclusión: artículos completos, publicados y disponibles en su totalidad; Criterios de exclusión: no relevancia para el tema y no tener acceso libre. Se identificaron 26 y se seleccionaron 17 publicaciones al final. Resultados: La mayoría de las publicaciones encontraron que las medidas de prevención incluyen quedarse en casa, higiene de manos y objetos, diseminación de conocimiento sobre cómo prevenir el Covid-19. Además de limitar a los pacientes en entornos hospitalarios, modificar las modalidades de tratamiento para reducir la probabilidad de mielosupresión, posponiendo la intervención quirúrgica para tumores benignos. Conclusión: La adopción de medidas y manejo específicos para pacientes con cáncer reduce la posibilidad de infección por Sars-CoV-2, através de prácticas como: medidas de higiene y protección individual, evitando el hacinamiento, la medicina remota, tratamientos alternativos y posponiendo intervenciones quirúrgicas.Introdução: Pacientes com câncer têm maior possibilidade de contrair a doença pelo coronavírus 2019 (Covid-19) em razão da fragilidade que a doença e seu respectivo tratamento trazem. A medida mais importante durante a pandemia é a prevenção contra a síndrome respiratória aguda grave do coronavírus 2 (Sars-CoV-2), a fim de não interromper o tratamento do câncer ou piorar o prognóstico desses pacientes. Objetivo: Evidenciar conhecimentos que contribuam para o fortalecimento de ações de prevenção à Covid-19 e manejo adequado do paciente com câncer em tempo de pandemia. Método: Revisão integrativa da literatura com busca nas bases de dados da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e do Google Scholar. Foram cruzados com o operador booleano and e os descritores em português e inglês, “neoplasias”, “prevenção de doenças”, “coronavírus” e “pandemias”. Critérios de inclusão: artigos completos, publicados e disponíveis na íntegra. Critério de exclusão: a não pertinência ao tema e não possuir acesso gratuito. Foram identificadas 26 publicações e selecionaram-se, ao final, 17. Resultados: A maioria das publicações detectou que, entre as medidas de prevenção, destacam-se ficar em casa, higienização das mãos e objetos, e disseminação de conhecimento sobre como prevenir a Covid-19. Além da limitação dos pacientes em ambientes hospitalares, modificação das modalidades de tratamento para que se reduza a probabilidade de mielossupressão e adiamento da intervenção cirúrgica para tumores benignos. Conclusão: A adoção de medidas e manejos específicos a pacientes oncológicos reduzem a possibilidade de infecção pelo Sars-CoV-2, por meio de práticas como medidas de higiene e proteção individuais, evitar aglomerações, medicina remota, tratamentos alternativos e postergar intervenções cirúrgicas.INCA2020-07-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/112510.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2020v66nTemaAtual.1125Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 66 No. TemaAtual (2020): Temas atuais: Sars-CoV-2/Covid-19 e Câncer; e-1125Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 66 Núm.
