This study determined a median cost per ICU day (cost per non-ICU day) for medical survivors of $1,357 ($232) and a median cost per ICU day for non-survivors (cost per non-ICU day) of $1,502 ($250).hen non-patient related costs were incorporated, an average cost per patient day was estimated at 1,152. A study of the cost per ICU day of medical and surgical patients compared to non-ICU days was undertaken in 1995, using a bottom-up costing method [18] .
The cost of a 6-count fiber cable is $2,000 per mile, while an 864-count cable is. $50,000 per mile, implying a marginal cost of approximately $50 per fiber per mile. Actual costs for fiber purchase or lease,of course, reflect market costs and depend on the.
From these Google Fiber Huts, the fiber cables travel along utility poles into neighborhoods and homes, and stop at a Fiber Jack (an Optical Network Terminal or ONT) in each home. The estimated cost of wiring a fiber network like Google Fiber into a major American city is $1 billion.
