Abstract

AbstractDuring the first twowaves of Covid-19 pandemic, territorial healthcare systems have been severely stressed in many countries. The availability (and complexity) of data requires proper comparisons for understanding differences in performance of health services. We apply a three-steps approach to compare the performance of Italian healthcare system at territorial level (NUTS 2 regions), considering daily time series regarding both intensive care units and ordinary hospitalizations of Covid-19 patients. Changes between the two waves at a regional level emerge from the main results, allowing to map the pressure on territorial health services.
