Bed occupancy is usually used in aggregate form as "per location" and/or "per timeframe", e.g. by day/month/quarter/year x Ward/Unit x Hospital.
Occupancy Calculation
Definition1 :Actual hours occupying a bed per day for each patient
- If admit date the same as discharge date - calculate the difference between the discharge time and admit time.
- if admit date is not the same as disch date
- for first date - calculate the difference between 2400 and admit time
- for in between date - consider 1 full day
- for last date - calculate the difference between Dispo DtTm - 001
- Bed Occupancy per day = sum of bed occupied by all patients in a given day
Definition2: Get the maximum bed census and minimum bed census per day
- This is being done by defining a counter for people admitted and discharged to an ICU. The counter is a -1 or +1. The Admit date/time is used as the time to +1 to census. The discharge date/time is used as the time to -1 to census. On a chronological order of time, the patient admitted is added and the patient discharged is subtracted based on time per day.
- Per day, the minimum and maximum census are used to calculate the daily bed occupancy as follows:
- Bed occupancy per day = (Minimum + Maximum)/2
Definition3: The number of bed census per slice of time
- This means for a given hour of the day, how many beds are occupied.
- This is done by adding the patient admitted and subtracting the patient discharged based on time per day as in Definition2 above.
- Bed Occupancy per day at ##Hour = number of patients occupying a bed at ##Hour.
