1279: AGGREGATE EARLY WARNING SIGNS COULD PREDICT IN-HOSPITAL CARDIAC ARREST IN A JAPANESE ACADEMIC CENTERIntroduction/Hypothesis: Rapid response system(RRS) is a key pillar for reducing in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) worldwide. Although the Japanese Coalition for Patient Safety introduced RRS...
In hospital (and in ambulances), the heart attack patient may be on a monitor to continually check the heart rate and rhythm. If there are warning signs, medication can be used to try to stabilize the electrical activity of the heart and prevent VFib. If VFib does occur, CPR and defibr...
The need for hospitals and physicians to recognize and react to patients showing early signs and symptoms of clinical deterioration has resulted in the creation of a rapid response system (RRS). Patient deterioration prior to adverse events including cardiac arrest and ICU admission has been reported...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Severe adverse events such as cardiac arrest and death are often heralded by abnormal vital signs hours before the event. This ne... C Mathukia,WQ Fan,K Vadyak,... - 《Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives》 被引量: 53发表: 2015年 Use of...
Early detection and response to patient deterioration are critical to avoid adverse events, preventable morbidity, cardiac arrest, unexpected ICU admission, and mortality [1]. Patients often display indicators of clinical deterioration up to 24 h before a significant clinical event arises needing extensiv...
controlled trial by Hillman and colleagues, 10 failed to demonstrate benefit partly because of the calling criteria's sensitivity and specificity of ,50%. Indeed, the majority of 'deteriorating' patients were not detected until ,15 min before they suffered cardiac arrest, died or were admitted to...
During a cardiac arrest, the heart stops pumping blood throughout the body. Cardiac arrest can occur for multiple reasons, including problems with the electrical system of the heart (heart rhythm problems). Cardiac arrest occurs suddenly and often without warning. The electrical impulses may be too...

The EMS Modified Early Warning Score (EMEWS): A simple count of vital signs as a predictor of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests Objective For patients at risk for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) after Emergency Medical Services (EMS) arrival, outcomes may be mitigated by ident... BM ...
For some time, this notion of a shared responsibility for data security has been recognized as a best practice within the larger technology industry. Read more 1 Kim WY, Shin YJ, Lee JM, et al. Modified Early Warning Score Changes Prior to Cardiac Arrest in General Wards. PLoS One. 2015...
