Resumo
Esse documento tem por objetivo fornecer informações que possam servir de base para utilização de aerossolterapia pelos fisioterapeutas no contexto da COVID-19. Qualquer procedimento que provoca o aumento do fluxo aéreo sobre a mucosa respiratória infectada apresenta risco de contaminação do ser humano, em virtude da liberação para o ambiente, de um aerossol potencialmente infectado. A terapia inalatória é frequentemente utilizada em pacientes internados nas unidades de terapia intensiva. Pela alta demanda e por suas particularidades, a ASSOBRAFIR recomenda que o adequado uso da aerossolterapia siga rigorosamente as orientações descritas neste documento, baseadas em literatura científica atualizada. Essa recomendação tem o objetivo de se atingir os efeitos clínicos pretendidos, mas garantindo a proteção dos profissionais de saúde e pacientes.

Abstract
This document aims to provide information to serve as the basis for the use of aerosol therapy by physiotherapists in the context of COVID-19. Any procedure that causes an increase in airflow over the infected respiratory tract poses a risk of contamination, due to the release to the environment of potentially infected aerosol. Inhalation therapy is often used in patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU). Due to the high demand and particularities within the ICU, ASSOBRAFIR recommends that the proper use of aerosol therapy strictly follows the guidelines described in this document, which are based on up-to-date scientific literature. This recommendation aims to reach the intended clinical effects, but ensuring the safety of health professionals and patients at the same time.
