In the Czech Republic, the strategic data-based and organizational support for individual regions and for providers of acute care at the nationwide level is coordinated by the Ministry of Health. At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the country needed to very quickly implement a system for the monitoring, reporting, and overall management of hospital capacities. The aim of this viewpoint is to describe the purpose and basic functions of a web-based application named "Control Centre for Intensive Care," which was developed and made available to meet the needs of systematic online technical support for the management of intensive inpatient care across the Czech Republic during the first wave of the pandemic in spring 2020. Two tools of key importance are described in the context of national methodology: one module for regular online updates and overall monitoring of currently free capacities of intensive care in real time, and a second module for online entering and overall record-keeping of requirements on medications for COVID-19 patients. A total of 134 intensive care providers and 927 users from hospitals across all 14 regions of the Czech Republic were registered in the central Control Centre for Intensive Care database as of March 31, 2021. This web-based application enabled continuous monitoring and decision-making during the mass surge of critical care from autumn 2020 to spring 2021. The Control Center for Intensive Care has become an indispensable part of a set of online tools that are employed on a regular basis for crisis management at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic.
在捷克共和国,战略数据基础和组织支持在国家层面上为各个地区和急性护理提供者提供协调,由卫生部负责。在 COVID-19 大流行开始时,该国需要非常迅速地实施一个监测、报告和整体管理医院容量的系统。本文的目的是描述一个名为“重症监护控制中心”的网络应用程序的目的和基本功能,该应用程序是为满足 2020 年春季大流行第一波期间整个捷克共和国重症住院患者管理的系统在线技术支持需求而开发和提供的。在国家方法的背景下描述了两个重要的工具:一个用于定期在线更新和实时整体监测重症监护目前免费容量的模块,以及一个用于在线输入和整体记录 COVID-19 患者药物需求的模块。截至 2021 年 3 月 31 日,共有 134 家重症监护提供者和来自捷克共和国所有 14 个地区的 927 名医院用户在中央重症监护控制中心数据库中注册。这个网络应用程序在 2020 年秋季至 2021 年春季的大量重症监护激增期间实现了持续监测和决策。重症监护控制中心已成为一组在线工具的不可或缺的一部分,这些工具在 COVID-19 大流行期间定期用于危机管理。
