    Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze the impact coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) had in Argentina during its initial stage, identify the measures taken to try to mitigate its impact, and briefly compare it with the influenza A H1N1 pandemic in 2009. This is a descriptive study. Pandemics constitute a serious problem to global health with a major impact on the affected countries' populations. The recent COVID-19 outbreak represents one of the most important viral pandemics lately. It reached Argentina 64 days after the first case was identified in China. Since then, several measures were taken by the Argentinian government to try to mitigate its impact in this initial stage. An updated report of the current situation and its management in different countries is of vital importance regarding global health issues and may serve for feedback and decision-making.

    Abstract Cogan's syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by inflammatory eye and inner ear/vestibular disease. In some cases patients may present medium and large vessel vasculitis which may produce neurological manifestations. We present the case of a patient who was admitted with clinical manifestations of stroke. After intense study, Cogan's syndrome was diagnosed and treated.

    Abstract Introduction: Pulmonary laceration is usually caused by penetrating trauma but it can also be found in non-penetrating trauma. It usually resolves quickly and with few problems if proper and timely treatment is given for which an adequate diagnosis is mandatory. In some cases it may require a surgical approach.
    Case: A 21 year-old male was admitted after a car accident with multiple trauma lesions. He presented with tachycardia and tachypnea. Thorax CT revealed evident pulmonary lacerations. After placing two chest tubes he evolved favorably.
    Conclusion: Since we can usually find different kinds of injuries in multiple trauma, it is important to distinguish pulmonary lacerations from other types of lesions such as pneumothorax or concussions taking special consideration for mechanically ventilated patients and possible associated complications.

    Title translation Lung injury due to electric burn.
    Abstract Introduction: Electrical burns account for 3 to 4% of all burns. The most common sites of impact are the cardiovascular system, muscle tissue, neurological and skin. The commitment of the respiratory system is uncommon, with few cases reported in the literature.
    Case: 26-year-old male patient who enters after high-voltage electrical injury. He presented skin and respiratory distress engagement with requirement of mechanical respiratory assistance, deep sedation and neuromuscular blockade.
    Conclusion: There are few reported cases in the literature of lung injury associated with electrical trauma. Recognizing the respiratory system as a possible site of impact by highlighting the importance of advanced life support is critical.

    Abstract Introducción: Las quemaduras eléctricas representan entre el 3 y el 4% de todas las quemaduras. Los sitios de impacto más frecuentes son el sistema cardiovascular, el tejido muscular, el neurológico y el cutáneo. El compromiso del sistema respiratorio es infrecuente, con escaso número de casos reportados en la literatura. Caso clinico: Paciente varón de 26 años que ingresa luego de lesión eléctrica de alto voltaje. Presentó compromiso cutáneo y distress respiratorio con requerimiento de asistencia respiratoria mecánica, sedación profunda y bloqueo neuromuscular. Conclusión: Hay pocos casos reportados en la literatura de lesión pulmonar asociado a trauma eléctrico. Es fundamental reconocer el sistema respiratorio como posible sitio de impacto resaltando la importancia de un soporte vital avanzado.

    Abstract Introduction: Pandemics pose a major challenge for public health preparedness, requiring a coordinated international response and the development of solid containment plans. An early and accurate identification of high-risk patients in the course of the actual COVID-19 pandemic is vital for planning and for making proper use of available resources. Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the key variables to create a predictive model that could be used effectively for triage. Method: A narrative literature review of 651 articles was conducted to assess clinical, laboratory and imaging findings of COVID-19 confirmed cases. After screening, 10 articles met the inclusion criteria and a list of suggested variables was gathered. A modified Delphi process analysis was performed to consult experts in order to generate a final list of variables for the creation of the predictive model. Results: The modified Delphi process analysis identified 44 predictive variables that were used for building a severity prediction score, the COVID-19 Severity Index. Conclusion: Specifically designed for current COVID-19 pandemic, COVID-19 Severity Index could be used as a reliable tool for strategic planning, organization and administration of resources by easily identifying hospitalized patients with higher risk of transfer to Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
