Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control
Patients admitted to 4 GHWs designated as controls. Nurses will not be notified when patients on these GHWs satisfy the EWS algorithm. They will also not wear the wireless sensor devices.
No interventions assigned to this group
Nurse notification of EWS alert
Patients admitted to 4 GHWs designated as intervention wards at BJH. Nurses will be notified when patients on these wards satisfy the EWS algorithm. Some patients will be asked to wear the wireless remote sensors.
EWS Nursing Alerts
An automated algorithm (EWS) will identify patients at potential risk of clinical deterioration. When a patient satisfies the algorithm, a nurse on the patient's ward will be notified. S/he will assess the patient and institute any interventions that are clinically required.
Wireless Remote Sensor
A subset of patients will be consented to wear a wireless sensor device which will monitor heart rate and level of oxygen in the blood.
