Anaesthesia monitor alarms: a theory-driven approach.
UNLABELLED The development of physiologic monitors has contributed to the decline in morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing anaesthesia. Diverse factors (physiologic, technical, historical and medico-legal) create challenges for monitor alarm designers. Indeed, a growing body of literature suggests that alarms function sub-optimally in supporting the human operator. Despite existing tec...
متن کاملAssociation between exposure to nonactionable physiologic monitor alarms and response time in a children's hospital.
BACKGROUND Alarm fatigue is reported to be a major threat to patient safety, yet little empirical data support its existence in the hospital. OBJECTIVE To determine if nurses exposed to high rates of nonactionable physiologic monitor alarms respond more slowly to subsequent alarms that could represent life-threatening conditions. DESIGN Observational study using video. SETTING Freestandin...
متن کاملCumulative Time Series Representation for Code Blue prediction in the Intensive Care Unit.
Patient monitors in hospitals generate a high number of false alarms that compromise patients care and burden clinicians. In our previous work, an attempt to alleviate this problem by finding combinations of monitor alarms and laboratory test that were predictive of code blue events, called SuperAlarms. Our current work consists of developing a novel time series representation that accounts for...
متن کاملIntegrating monitor alarms with laboratory test results to enhance patient deterioration prediction
Patient monitors in modern hospitals have become ubiquitous but they generate an excessive number of false alarms causing alarm fatigue. Our previous work showed that combinations of frequently co-occurring monitor alarms, called SuperAlarm patterns, were capable of predicting in-hospital code blue events at a lower alarm frequency. In the present study, we extend the conceptual domain of a Sup...
متن کامل1606 Cellular Events Preceding Thyroiditis in Rabbits
Although experimental thyroiditis in various animals has been studied rather extensively (1-4), the immunological events at the cellular level have not been characterized. Investigations carried out at this level should provide the answer as to whether antibody to thyroglobulin is responsible for the initial damage to the thyroid gland before any significant lymphocytic infiltration occurs. Oth...
