Funded Activity Summary

Patients in acute care hospital are increasingly dependent on effective nursing surveillance for early detection of decline in clinical stability. But to meet the imperatives of the safety and quality agenda hospitals are universally moving towards systems that track physiological decline and trigger emergency response. This research will study the effectiveness of an intervention that supports nurses’ patient surveillance practices to achieve reduction in the events of clinical deterioration.
