Opportunities
 Most hospitalized patients with cardiac arrest have abnormal physiological
values recorded in the hours preceding the event
•
•
A patient’s baseline condition begins to deteriorate a mean of 6.5 hours before an unexpected
critical event or actual cardiac arrest (5)
Schein et al found that 70% of patients show evidence of respiratory deterioration within 8
hours of arrest (6)
 At a minimum, the measurement of key clinical indicators must be obtained
accurately and recorded with appropriate frequency (7)
 Communication of patient deterioration can be improved and physician
notification of patient’s condition worsening may only occur in 25% of cases
 Ongoing program management and performance improvement is essential to
the sustainability of RRT’s
