Beds - ICU, non ICU. Patient is ICU patient (service/class is ICU) but in a non-ICU bed., ICU bed or bed is a new bed (surge bed) maybe with retrofitting - doubling people in room, converting OR room to ICU, beds located in units, areas, depts, hospitals, invented or repurposed for pandemic. Beds used. Beds unavailable.
Vents - regular vents, how many used for COVID - how many used for other, how many designated for other (like NICU), split vents, other equipment (anesthesia) repurposed as vent, vents received but not yet set up, vents not working. How many on vents with COVID, how many on vents without COVID
Transfers - external. For example moving non-COVID patients to another location.
