BACKGROUND Understanding how patients and relatives can be supported after hospital discharge is a UK research priority. Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge summaries are a simple way of providing GPs with the information they require to coordinate ongoing care, but little evidence is available to guide best practice. AIM This study aimed at better understanding the information needs of GP st...
CRITICALCARENURSE Vol 29, No. 2, APRIL 2009 77 family challenged the health care team’s recommendations and insisted that their mother be readmitted to the ICU so that aggressive life-sustaining treatment would continue. This case, although Canadian, is relevant to ICU settings throughout North America. The purpose of this discussion is not to provide an indepth ethical analysis, but rather to ...
BACKGROUND Shorter resident duty periods are increasingly mandated to improve patient safety and physician well-being. However, increases in continuity-related errors may counteract the purported benefits of reducing fatigue. We evaluated the effects of 3 resident schedules in the intensive care unit (ICU) on patient safety, resident well-being and continuity of care. METHODS Residents in 2 u...
The term rapid response system (RRS) describes a hospital-wide approach to (a) improve the detection of deteriorating patients and (b) provide a responding team who commence treatment aimed at preventing serious adverse events including cardiac arrest and unexpected death [1]. Ward staff are alerted to clinical deterioration when patients fulfil predefined criteria based on vital sign derangeme...
BACKGROUND Current thinking about patient safety emphasizes the relationship between organizational factors, that is, latent risk factors (LRFs) and patient safety. This study explores the influence of the operating theatre (OT), intensive care unit (ICU), and disciplines on ratings of LRFs. If we have an understanding of the contribution made by these factors, we can identify significant point...
In this paper, we propose a new system that takes profits of data stream technology. It aims to collect and store data arriving from monitoring system in intensive care unit (ICU). Then, it makes it available for the medical staff to analyze data and take the appropriate treatment for patients. In fact, monitoring system in ICU provides a large amount of data rapidly and continuously. Most of d...
High noise levels in hospitals are often linked to various negative effects on patient outcome and work performance of clinical staff. Despite growing research attention on the adverse acoustic conditions in healthcare environments, few studies offer on-site surveys collected for a relatively long period with a clear description of the measurement protocol, and furthermore, the sources of noise...
Studies suggest that the physical environment can be important for patient comfort, patient safety, patient privacy, family integration with patient care, and staff working condition in adult intensive care units (ICUs). In the absence of any measuring scales, however, evaluations of the physical environment of ICUs in terms of any of these dimensions have remained vague. For rigorous evaluatio...
