Impact of healthcare strain on access to mechanical ventilation and mortality of hospitalized COVID-19 patients: a retrospective cohort study.
Isaac NúñezAdrian Soto-MotaPublished in: Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (2022)
Higher hospital bed saturation increased the hazard of dying without being intubated and worsened the outcomes among mechanically ventilated patients. Older age also increased the hazard of the outcomes, while private healthcare dramatically decreased them.
