[COVID-19 treatment algorithm focused on early identification of risk factors].

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of the respiratory disease called COVID-19 and of the state of global health emergency. Currently, there is no specific treatment or sufficient scientific information to generate consensus or unique international guidelines on how to treat COVID-19. It is suggested that adapting the actions of evaluation, monitoring and treatment of patients with COVID-19, focused on the knowledge of the pathophysiology of the disease and on the known risk factors, could improve the presentation of adverse outcomes in patients.
