COVID-19疫情中的生物力学问题

Biomechanical Issues in COVID-19 Epidemic

新型冠状病毒肺炎自爆发以来,已成为全球关注的焦点。由于疫情来势迅猛,给医疗制度体系、医疗资源、应急处置、医疗器械等提出了严峻的挑战,也暴露出其中诸多不足。以病毒的体外活性规律研究、气溶胶传播的生物力学问题、呼吸性疾病对心血管疾病影响的研究、公共交通和公共场所中通风方式的改进、医疗器械的生物力学研究为例,应用生物力学的原理、观点和方法,认识和剖析其中所存在和亟待改进的问题,期望生物力学能在疫情防控中发挥学科优势和力量,以此促进生物力学学科发展。

Corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19)has been the focus of global attention since its outbreak.With the rapid spreading of COVID-19,serious challenges including medical management system,medical resources,emergency response,medical devices and instruments gradually occur,revealing many shortcomings among these aspects.Herein,through the principles,viewpoints and methods of biomechanics,this article recognizes and analyzes the existing problems that are urgently needed to be solved,such as the study of in-vitro viability of the virus,the biomechanics of aerosol,the fluid mechanics in public transportation and places,the relationship between respiratory diseases and cardiovascular diseases,the improvement of medical devices,with an objective of taking advantages of biomechanics in epidemic prevention and control,so as to promote the development of biomechanics.
