Intensive care units (ICUs), and health system resilience form key elements of the health system to prepare for meeting needs of its population, both during surge needs, and for postpandemic planning. There is limited evaluation of the existing ICU infrastructure, processes and protocols within ICUs. Our study sought to perform an assessment of the ICU practices across Ecuador. Methods: During December, 2020, we conducted an observational, cross-sectional study using questionnaires developed in Spanish, that were deployed in 42 Ecuadorian medical facilities, using trained physicians. The questionnaires were developed by experts, covering domains including hospital characteristics, utilization, and structural factors, such as human resources, and staffing practices. ICUs were categorized by the degree of global resource availability. The primary outcomes were availability and access to equipment, personnel, protocols, and therapies relevant to the practice of critical care. Secondary outcomes were mortality, admissions in the emergency department and ICU annually. Results: Thirty-six hospitals (85.7%) agreed to participate and were enrolled in the study. Annual average ICU mortality in 2019 was 20% (IQR: 14-30), which in 2020 increased to 40.5% (IQR 28.9-49.8), in the facilities evaluated. Annual average ICU admissions were 311 (154-404), with an average annual bed capacity of 120 (82-221.5). Sepsis, deep venous thromboprophylaxis, and glucose monitoring protocols were most commonly reported (96%), while protocols for massive transfusion (48%), targeted temperature management (41%), and palliative care (30%) were less common. In a multivariable linear regression adjusting for ICU level, annual ICU mortality was significantly lower in hospitals that reported higher use of respiratory protocols (- 3.4%, 95% CI-5.4 to -1.3;p=0.003) and sepsis protocols (-8.4%, 95% CI -14.1 to -2.7);p= 0.006). Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first study describing the ICU structure, process and components of different facilities across Ecuador. These may help guide decision-making policymakers, and health service communities to understand Ecuador's health system resilience, and key avenues for improvement and planning.","PeriodicalId":264442,"journal":{"name":"A44.

Understanding how ethical values of laypeople differ from that of healthcare workers (HCW) is crucial to ensure a widely accepted policy. We intended to better understand how the values of laypeople, licensed independent practitioners (LIP), and non-LIP HCW align and differ regarding scarce resource allocation, particularly on exemptions and adjustments to ICU triage decisions, which could otherwise undermine public trust if not appropriately understood. Methods: Data were collected from a web-based national survey aimed at understanding the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We analyzed 1934 adult respondents, including 1353 lay-people, 200 LIPs and 381 non-LIP HCW. Respondents' values were assessed by 9- point Likert scale, (1= should be less likely to receive, 5 = should not influence, 9 = should be much more likely to receive ICU care), comparing responses using Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results: All groups equally prioritized ICU care for pregnant persons in first trimester. Agreement on prioritization was stronger for 3rd trimester pregnancy, where LIP rated agreement higher than other HCW (P=0.020). Laypeople favored a principle of reciprocity, prioritizing front-line health workers more than either LIP or other HCW (8 vs 7 vs 6, respectively, P<0.001). Laypersons rated their trust that health systems would apply SRA policy in a fair and consistent way slightly lower compared to either LIP or other HCW, but this was not significant (6 vs 7 vs 7, P=0.5). All groups felt similarly anxious and worried when thinking about policies like this (median score 7 where 9 = “I feel very anxious when thinking about this”, P=0.9). Discussion/Conclusions: In creating policies for scarce resource allocation, it is important to consider the nuanced values of all groups affected by these policies. In particular, while concern may exist that systems using non-healthrelated factors in treatment decisions may be less agreeable, we found similar levels of agreement when prioritizing on two key groups: pregnancy and at-risk health worker status. While our survey showed all groups lean towards trusting the healthcare system to fairly allocate resources, the range of responses and the consistent anxiety surrounding these policies emphasizes the importance of trying to understand and accommodate the priorities of affected groups as able.
