The Epidemiology of Sepsis during Rapid Response Team Reviews in a Teaching Hospital [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2015
In a three-month retrospective study, we assessed the proportion of rapid response team (RRT) calls associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and sepsis. We also documented the site of infection (whether it was community- or hospital-acquired), antibiotic modifications after the call and in-hospital outcomes. Amongst 358 RRT calls,

Hospital mortality predictive factors following Rapid Response Team activation [PDF]

Critical Care, 2014
The Rapid Response Team (RRT) represents an important advance in the management of deteriorating ward patients and is recommended as a patient safety measure. Most studies on RRT evaluate the effects of its implementation on rate reduction of cardiopulmonary arrest outside the ICU and hospital mortality, with limited information on the criteria for RRT

Assessment of Rapid Response Teams at Top-Performing Hospitals for In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest [PDF]

JAMA Internal Medicine, 2019
Rapid response teams (RRTs) are foundational to hospital response to deteriorating conditions of patients. However, little is known about differences in RRT organization and function across top-performing and non-top-performing hospitals for in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) care.To evaluate differences in design and implementation of RRTs at top ...
