Patient monitoring
Alarm management
A comprehensive approach to solving your alarm management challenges
Excessive alarms can contribute to medical errors, staff burnout and lost productivity – as well as a disruptive experience for patients. As multiple alarms compete to capture attention, nurses may miss the alarms that are actually urgent, putting their patient at risk. Quality care, patient and staff satisfaction all depend on making improvements to ensure that alarms are heard and responded to – without overwhelming patients and clinicians.
