Avoidable Days in ICU is the proportion of ICU total patient days being spent occupying an ICU bed when the patient no longer requires the intensity of care provided in an ICU setting. Another term used to call it is % Wasted beds.

Count of full or partial days patients occupy beds. Partial days are reported in a decimal fraction of a day. There are also other ways to calculate daily bed occupancy.

Beds Occupied by Transferable Patients is the average number of ICU bed per day being occupied by the patient no longer requiring the intensity of care provided in an ICU setting. Another term used to call it is Wasted beds.
