Title: Planning Hospital Needs for Ventilators and Respiratory Therapists in the COVID-19 Crisis | RAND

URL: https://www.rand.org/pubs/perspectives/PEA228-1.html

Collection: Global Health Events web archive

Description: To address the ventilator allocation problem during the COVID-19 pandemic, the authors of this 16-page report designed a model that can be used to calculate the number of ventilators and respiratory therapists needed to achieve a target wait time - the average delay for a ventilator experienced by a new patient. The target wait time corresponds with a probability that any wait is experienced: If the average wait is small, most patients would in fact experience no wait at all.
