A fully interfaced clinical information system (CIS) contains physiologic, laboratory, blood gas, medication and other data that can be used as the information base for a comprehensive alerting system. Coupled with an event driven rules engine, a CIS can generate clinical alerts which may both prevent medical errors and assist caregivers in responding to critical events in a timely way. The authors have developed a clinical alerting system which delivers alerts and reminders to clinicians in real time via a alphanumeric display pagers. This paper will describe the system, the type and number of alerts generated, and the impact on clinical practice. A major issue remains in measuring the impact of wireless alerts on patient outcomes.
一个完全接口化的临床信息系统(CIS)包含生理、实验室、血气、用药及其他数据,这些数据可用作综合警报系统的信息基础。结合事件驱动规则引擎,CIS能够生成临床警报,这既可以预防医疗差错,又能帮助医护人员及时应对危急事件。作者开发了一种临床警报系统,该系统通过字母数字显示寻呼机向临床医生实时发送警报和提醒。本文将描述该系统、所生成警报的类型和数量,以及对临床实践的影响。在衡量无线警报对患者预后的影响方面,一个主要问题仍然存在。
