Importance of patient bed pathways and length of stay differences in predicting COVID-19 bed occupancy in England
2021-01-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objectives</h4> Predicting bed occupancy for hospitalised patients with COVID-19 requires understanding of length of stay (LoS) in particular bed types. LoS can vary depending on the patient’s “bed pathway” - the sequence of transfers between bed types during a hospital stay. In this study, we characterise these pathways, and their impact on predicted hospital bed occupancy. <h4>Design</h4> We obtained data fr...
