Resuscitation, 2018 Rapid response systems are commonly employed by hospitals to identify and respond to deteriorating patients outside of the intensive care unit. Controversy exists about the benefits of rapid response systems.We aimed to review the current state of the rapid response literature, including evolving aspects of afferent (risk detection) and efferent ...

Medical Journal of Australia, 2014 Rapid response systems (RRSs) are one of the first organisation-wide, patient-focused systems to be developed to prevent potentially avoidable deaths and serious adverse events such as cardiac arrests. RRSs identify seriously ill and at-risk patients and those whose condition is deteriorating, using abnormal vital signs and observations that trigger an

Rapid systemic responses to herbivory
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2022 Rapid systemic signals travel within the first seconds and minutes after herbivore infestation to mount defense responses in distal tissues. Recent studies have revealed that wound-induced hydraulic pressure changes play an important role in systemic electrical signaling and subsequent calcium and reactive oxygen species waves. These insights raise new

Rapid response systems in Korea [PDF]
Acute and Critical Care, 2019 The inpatient treatment process is becoming more and more complicated with advanced treatments, aging of the patient population, and multiple comorbidities. During the process, patients often experience unexpected deterioration, about half of which might be preventable.

Patient safety and rapid response systems [PDF]
Medical Journal of Australia, 2014 Attention was drawn to the safety of patients in acute care hospitals in the early 1990s when studies found large numbers of potentially preventable deaths. Errors were initially ascribed to individual doctors and nurses, but later it was recognised that errors were mainly related to failure of systems rather than individuals.

Rapid response team nurses' attitudes and barriers to the rapid response system: A multicentre survey [PDF]
Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2021 AbstractBackgroundDespite wide implementation of rapid response teams (RRTs), no published data exist on RRT nurses' attitudes and barriers to the rapid response system (RRS).MethodsWe piloted a 5‐point Likert‐type scale questionnaire among all Finnish university hospitals' RRT nurses with optional open‐ended comments.

The rapid response system: an integrative review [PDF]
Contemporary Nurse, 2019 Background: Clinical deterioration and adverse events in hospitals is an increasing cause for concern. Rapid response systems have been widely implemented to identify deteriorating patients. Aim: We aimed to examine the literature highlighting major historical trends leading to the widespread adoption of rapid response systems, focussing on Australian ...

Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2008 Intensive care medicine was for many years practiced within the four walls of an intensive care unit (ICU). Evidence then emerged that many serious adverse events in hospitals were preceded by many hours of slow deterioration, resulting in multi-organ failure and potentially preventable admissions to the ICU.
