Abstract
How does the COVID-19 pandemic influence the congestion probability of the ICU? In this paper two models are given to capture the interaction and effect of COVID to non-COVID patients at the ICU and its possible effect on postponed surgeries for a single hospital. Particularly a coordinate convex interdependence is allowed. So-called product form expressions are derived that can be used to compute Bt, the patient dependent congestion probabilities. It enables, as illustrated with real data, to calculate the congestion probabilities for the different patient types.
