Hospital beds is not a very valuable statistic because it’s not a fixed resource. Hospitals can remove elective procedures or transfer them to other facilities, can add surge capacity, and/or can go above surge capacity by reformatting non-ICU beds into ICU beds.
Accurate. At our hospital our surge capacity plan more than doubled our regular ICU capacity, suspended elective procedures, and utilized anesthesia machines as additional ventilators. We never even approached more than 1/4 of our regular ICU capacity with COVID positive patients at our peak.
