ABSTRACT

Objectives: This study aims to describe the current status of equipment, human resources, and professional capabilities in COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment at the COVID-19 Intensive Care Center under Bach Mai Hospital and its satellite hospitals.

Participants and Methods: This observational study was conducted from August patient metrics were collected from CIC and 10 assigned satellite hospitals at baseline (August 23) and endline (September 30).

Results: At baseline, satellite hospitals had limited isolation the greatest capacity expansion, increasing from 0 to 4,500+ 10-267 per hospital, with only 1-13 being critical care specialists. nurses per hospital. By endline, some hospitals had enhanced patients early but had no ventilated patients. Average length of stay ranged from 4-17 days between hospitals. Key lessons including, immediately establishing surge ICU capacity based
resource disparities between hospitals, and investing in specialized training. This can enhance pandemic preparedness and intensive care delivery during outbreaks.
Conclusions: Rapid expansion of beds and workforce absorbed the COVID-19 surge, but critical shortages persisted. Variable patient outcomes and lengths of stay indicated room for quality improvement. Further research should evaluate the long-term effects of these efforts.
