Abstract
The severity of COVID-19 is often associated with severe pneumonia requiring intensive care unit (ICU) without Ventilation and ICU with ventilation. Clinical outcomes depend on the length of the ICU and the duration of the states. It is difficult to estimate how many people will experience each of these outcomes (discharge, death) due to the time dependence of the data and the potential for multiple events. Because of their time dependence, potential multiple events, and competing, terminal events of discharge, alive and death, estimating these quantities statistically is challenging. The main objective of this paper is to study the time-dependent progress of COVID-19 patients through the multistate approach with hazard rates and transition probabilities. The methodology allows for the analysis of active instances by accommodating censoring and the probability plots offer comprehensive information in a straightforward manner that can be easily shared with decision-makers in healthcare capacity planning
