The provision of health care in the perioperative setting has undergone significant changes due to severe respiratory distress syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Hospital facilities have been tasked with developing and implementing personal protective equipment (PPE) protocols to protect both medical providers and patients. Texas Children's Hospital has created a set of protocols for donning and doffing PPE while managing surgical pediatric patients. These requirements have undergone numerous modifications as a result of our internal infrastructural recommendations and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance, which has led to more lenient regulations. While these perioperative PPE protocols were less stringent compared to the original guidelines, we were able to create a safe surgical environment without further exposing patients and health care providers to SARS-CoV-2. In this article, we detail the design, distribution, implementation, and modification of our institutional surgical PPE protocols.
