Abstract

The Intensive Care Unit was created to provide advanced life support to patients with severe and acute diseases, but who have chances of survival. Studies show that the universalization of health services promoted by the SUS has been shown to be fragile in the actions of rationalization of resources and inclusion of the entire population in an equitable way in public health care, especially in activities of high complexity and high cost, such as hospitalizations in ICU beds. To perform an analysis of the quantity of Intensive Care Unit beds offered in the period from 2019 to 2021 in the State of Pará. Data collection aimed at the study of historical data through secondary sources, including population beds and general intensive care beds. The male sex was the most prevalent in hospitalizations, the age group between 60 and 80 years years was the predominant in the period from 2019 to 2021. Clinical comorbidities were the most dominant in the state of Pará. The mortality rate in Pará is the highest in both hospitals and ICUs. Clinical hospitalizations were the prevailing ones in the state of Pará. It is concluded that in the state of Pará the male sex is the most internal in ICUs and the most prevalent age group is between 60 and 80 years. The state of Pará dominated the mortality ranking in the period studied. There was no attempt to provide a minimum percentage of intensive care beds, considering the parameters of the World Health Organization and the Ministry of Health, which determine that the minimum variation of beds should be from 1 to 3 beds per 10,000 inhabitants.
