Abstract

Since March 2020, the Institute of Intensive Care Medicine at the University of Zurich has been using the RISC-19-ICU Register to collect detailed data on the physiological and therapy-associated characteristics of patients admitted to an intensive care unit, the course of these characteristics during intensive care, and the clinical outcome. In addition to the direct relevance of the register for the medical understanding of Covid-19 and for the effects of measures (such as the vaccination campaign), these data, which are representative across Switzerland and for various hospital types, in combination with epidemiological data, offer a quantitative insight into developments in intensive care units. In order to ensure our own knowledge needs in adaptation to the changing epidemiological situation, the "continuation of the register for the ongoing monitoring of critically ill COVID-19 patients in Swiss intensive care units" is therefore being planned.
