In Chile, due to the explosive increase of new Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases during the first part of 2021, the ability of health services to accommodate new incoming cases was jeopardized. It has become necessary to be able to manage intensive care unit (ICU) capacity, and for this purpose, monitoring both the evolution of new cases and the demand for ICU beds has become urgent. This paper presents short-term forecast models for the number of new cases and the number of COVID-19 patients admitted to ICUs in the Metropolitan Region in Chile.
在智利,由于2021年上半年新型冠状病毒病2019(COVID-19)病例呈爆发式增长,医疗卫生服务机构接纳新增病例的能力受到了威胁。因此,必须对重症监护病房(ICU)的容量进行管理,为此,监测新增病例的发展趋势以及ICU床位的需求变得刻不容缓。本文介绍了智利首都大区新增病例数和入住ICU的COVID-19患者数量的短期预测模型。
