The Vital Signs to Identify, Target, and Assess Level (VITAL) Care Study III
Status:
Completed
Sponsors
Philips Healthcare
Abstract:
To evaluate the effect of automated recording on frequency of recorded scores, number of automated notifications and serious events.
Description:
The frequency of EWS scores, number of automated notifications and serious events performed on a general ward is contingent on the quality and frequency of vital signs measurement like respiratory rate. This is due to the EWS escalation schemes of hospitals with an acute intervention team. Obtained sub-score trigger levels of vital signs contribute to higher and more frequent scoring.
We examine the influence of different respiration rate sensor concepts and measurements on scoring (NEWS and CREWS) and workflow in a typical UK gastroenterology and respiratory ward.
Condition or disease:Cardiac Arrest
Renal Failure
Respiration Failure
Myocardial Infarction
Severe Sepsis
Intervention/treatment:
Device: Automatic Respiration Rate Measurement
Phase:-
Study design:
Study Type:Observational
Observational Model:Cohort
Time Perspective:Prospective
Arm group:
ArmIntervention/treatment
Manual Respiration Rate Measurement
Patients with manually measured respiratory rate
Automatic Respiration Rate Measurement
Patients with automatically measured respiratory rate
Device: Automatic Respiration Rate Measurement
Different newly developed respiration rate sensors are applied at the bedside during the intervention phase which send data to the IntelliVue Guardian System.
