Abstract

No cenário atual de pandemia, os cuidados com os resíduos sólidos hospitalares devem ser redobrados, e com a busca constante por protocolos mais seguros de gestão e manejo desses resíduos. Dessa forma, esse artigo objetiva realizar uma revisão sistemática de literatura sobre o gerenciamento dos resíduos médicos no contexto de pandemia de COVID-19. Como resultados deste estudo pode-se verificar que a pandemia alterou a quantidade e o gerenciamento dos resíduos sólidos médicos, impactando os âmbitos social, econômico e ambiental, e que estudos atuais visaram a mitigação desses impactos com a busca de soluções “verdes”, além de mudanças e/ou adaptações nas políticas de gestão dos resíduos médicos. Pode-se apurar também a necessidade de mais pesquisas científicas sobre o tema, principalmente, em território brasileiro, que auxiliem na elaboração e desenvolvimento de estratégias que minimizem os impactos da pandemia para a sociedade e meio ambiente.
