Biased and unbiased estimation of the average length of stay in intensive care units in the COVID-19 pandemic

2020-04-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The average length of stay (LOS) in the intensive care unit (ICU_ALOS) is a helpful parameter summarizing critical bed occupancy. During the outbreak of a novel virus, estimating early a reliable ICU_ALOS estimate of infected patients is critical to accurately parameterize models examining mitigation and preparedness scenarios. <h4>Methods</h4> Two estimation methods of ICU ALOS were compared:...
