description Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic was difficult for everyone and even more so for hospitals and medical personnel. The infections caused by this disease were many in a very short time, due to this, hospitals resorted to using engineering tools for effective and efficient management of patients with severe symptoms of COVID-19. Considering the above, it is possible to apply a multi-criteria decision method to prioritize the objectives that must be met to achieve the best medical care for patients with severe symptoms. The results obtained is that the criterion that should be approached first is the use of digital communication platforms such as WeChat, Whatsapp, Telegram, because these platforms offer instant communication through text, images, documents, videos or audios and which does not require physical presence between the isolation room and the outside, compared to those obtained at Huazhong University, this method would define the order of priority in which these objectives should be achieved. Finally, the results obtained depict that it is possible to prioritize the management of workloads in the care of patients with COVID disease. Keywords MOORA, Likert scale, PDCA, COVID-19.

La pandemia por COVID-19 fue difícil para todos y aún más para los hospitales y el personal médico. Los contagios por esta enfermedad fueron muchos en muy poco tiempo debido a esto los hospitales recurrieron a utilizar herramientas de ingeniería para gestión eficaz y eficiente de los pacientes con síntomas graves de COVID-19. Considerando lo anterior es posible aplicar un método de decisión multicriterio para priorizar los objetivos que se requieren cumplir para lograr la mejor atención medica de los pacientes con síntomas graves. Los resultados obtenidos es que el criterio que se debe enfocar primero es la utilización de plataformas digitales para la comunicación como WeChat, WhatsApp, Telegram, debido a que dichas plataformas ofrecen una comunicación instantánea por medio de texto, imágenes, documentos, videos o audios y que no requiere presencia física entre la sala de aislamiento y el exterior, en comparación con los obtenidos en la Universidad de Huazhong, este método definiría el orden de prioridad en que se deben realizar estos objetivos. Finalmente, los resultados obtenidos demuestran que es posible establecer prioridad en la gestión de las cargas de trabajo en la atención de los pacientes con la enfermedad COVID.
