Background: Physicians are part of the first line of defense against COVID-19, a disease that can cause acute respiratory syndrome and has been a pandemic since 2020. Adequate knowledge about this disease is essential for good daily practice and self-care ability. Objectives: To determine the level of knowledge of the medical staff of the surgery department of a level III-1 hospital and possible factors associated with it. Materials and methods: A previously validated survey was carried out from July 1st to 8th, 2022. A database was created in Microsoft Excel 2016 that was processed in STATA 16, taking into account p <0.05 as a significant value. Results: There were 99 participants, 73.7% were under 40 years old, 82.8% were male and 63.6% were medical residents. 79.8% obtained a high knowledge rating. An association of age equal to or greater than 40 years with a higher level of knowledge was found (p=0.016). The responses with the highest percentage of error were about mortality (37.4%), incubation time (59.6%) and the attitude towards mild symptoms (47.5%). Conclusions: The medical staff of the surgery department of the level III-1 hospital evaluated, has in its majority a high level of knowledge about COVID-19; however, it is necessary to intervene in certain areas that require further updating, in order to help prevent the rate of contagion in this population group.
