Description

Ivor Douglas, Anuj Mehta, and Jason Mansoori put forward policies for intensive care strain in 2024. Strain means demand passing care supplies. The pandemic stretched intensive care badly. Deaths and stays rose under strain. Patients with and without COVID were hurt. A review found leading policy plans.

Running tactics span many system levels. Fair sharing of supplies needs ethical grounding. Knowing how people act may improve resource use. Teamwork also matters here. Equity should guide crisis planning strongly. System strength helps in routine times too. Pandemic lessons apply beyond pandemics, they argue. Ready systems protect all people better.
