Examples of different model outputs from the COVID-19 Resource Estimator model and cardiac submodule. (A) Base case scenario for resource consumption by COVID-19 patients in Ontario based on what was known about COVID-19 epidemiology in late March (modified from www.covid-19-mc.ca). (B) Estimated number of elective patient deaths over time with the cessation of elective cardiac procedures in early April followed by gradual resumption of procedures in mid-April to early May. (C) The potential depletion of cardiac critical care resources if 75% of cardiac beds are reserved for COVID-19 patients and cardiac procedures are performed at 100% capacity. (D) The predicted growth in waitlist as a consequence of holding all elective outpatient cardiac procedures for 1 week in April followed by gradual resumption of procedural activity. CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; EP, electrophysiology study; ICD, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator; ICU, intensive care unit; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; TAVI, transcatheter valve replacement (implantation).
