About the Data Includes 6,329 COVID-19 confirmed admissions 98% of statewide admissions (6,441 admissions per CDPHE) 60,252 patient days 17,431 ventilator days All patients had a positive COVID-19 PCR test Admitted between March 1, 2020 and July 31, 2020
About the Patients 67.2% (4,250) patients discharged to home 18.4% (1,162) patients discharged to another facility (Skilled Nursing Facility, Acute Rehab, Long Term Acute Care Hospital, another Acute Care Hospital or Hospice) Overall in-hospital mortality 13.5% (855)
About the Data: Caveats The data is not risk adjusted or case-mix adjusted The data was aggregated and de-identified at a health system level, and then aggregated centrally COVID-19 positive patient readmissions and transfers may be included in the datasets – a single patient may be counted more than once in the data 62 patients in the dataset remained hospitalized at the time the data was compiled, which could slightly skew mortality and length of stay in July

Summary This dataset provides a comprehensive view of Wave 1 of COVID-19 in Colorado Length of stay, mortality rates and ventilator use rates were observed to be higher in older age groups Patients requiring mechanical ventilation were observed to have: Higher mortality Longer lengths of stay Lower rates of discharge to home
Summary Ventilator utilization decreased between March and July Study was not designed to evaluate the cause of improved outcomes, but could be related to: Improved patient management and treatment algorithms Rapid sharing and dissemination of knowledge and best practices New therapies including antivirals and convalescent plasma Baseline patient characteristics and comorbidities Rates of ventilator use and length of stay data can help with future surge planning for potential future waves of COVID-19 in Colorado
