In 2023, Czechia had around 44.6 intensive care beds in hospitals per 100,000 population, that is the highest among the countries listed. This statistic shows intensive care bed density in hospitals in select countries worldwide in 2023.

This dataset provides values for ICU BEDS reported in several countries. The data includes current values, previous releases, historical highs and record lows, release frequency, reported unit and currency.

DISCLAIMER

Dataset consists of historical data of pre-pandemic period and doesn’t represent the current reality which may have changed due to the spikes in demand. This dataset has been generated in collaboration of efforts within CoronaWhy community.

Context

Last updated: April 26th 2020 Updates: April 14th 2020 - Added missing population data April 15th 2020 - Added Brazil statewise ICU hospital beds dataset April 21th 2020 - Added Italy, Spain statewise ICU hospital beds dataset, India statewise TOTAL hospital beds dataset April 26th 2020 - Added Sweden ICU(2019) and TOTAL(2018) beds datasets

Purpose of the dataset

I am trying to produce a dataset that will provide a foundation for policymakers to understand the realistic capacity of healthcare providers being able to deal with the spikes in demand for intensive care. As a way to help, I’ve prepared a dataset of beds across countries and states. Work in progress dataset that should and will be updated as more data becomes available and public on weekly basis.

Importance

This dataset is intended to be used as a baseline for understanding the typical bed capacity and coverage globally. This information is critical for understanding the impact of a high utilization event, like COVID-19.

Current challenges

Datasets are scattered across the web and are very hard to normalize, I did my best but help would be much appreciated.

Non-expenditure healthcare data provide information on institutions providing healthcare in countries, on resources used and on output produced in the framework of healthcare provision.

Data on healthcare form a major element of public health information as they describe the capacities available for different types of healthcare provision as well as potential 'bottlenecks' observed. The quantity and quality of healthcare services provided and the work sharing established between the different institutions are a subject of ongoing debate in all countries. Sustainability - continuously providing the necessary monetary and personal resources needed - and meeting the challenges of ageing societies are the primary perspectives used when analysing and using the data.

The resource-related data refer to both human and technical resources, i.e. they relate to:

• Health care staff: 'manpower' active in the health care sector (doctors, dentists, nurses, etc.);
• Heath workforce migration: migration movements of doctors and nurses;
• Healthcare facilities: technical capacity dimensions (hospital beds, beds in nursing and residential care facilities, etc.).

The output-related data ('activities') refer to contacts between patients and the healthcare system, and to the treatment thereby received. Data are available for hospital discharges of in-patients and day cases, average length of stay of in-patients, consultations with medical professionals, and medical procedures performed in hospitals.

Annual national and regional data are provided in absolute numbers, percentages, and in population-standardised rates (per 100 000 inhabitants).

Wherever applicable, the definitions and classifications of the System of Health Accounts (SHA) are followed, e.g. International Classification for Health Accounts - Providers of health care (ICHA-HP). For hospital discharges, the International Shortlist for Hospital Morbidity Tabulation (ISHMT) is used. Surgical procedures are classified according to a shortlist mapped to ICD-9-CM.

These healthcare data are largely based on administrative data sources in the countries. Therefore, they reflect the country-specific way of organising healthcare and may not always be completely comparable.
