Automated Respiration Rate to Improve Accuracy of the Electronic Cardiac Arrest Risk Triage Score (eCART) Algorithm

NCT02399930 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 133

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Currently, breathing rate and heart rate are checked by nursing staff manually every few hours and entered into a patient's medical record. The investigators are doing this study to see if a device that will automatically record breathing rate and heart rate every 15 minutes is as accurate as the manual measurement. The investigators will also see if these measurements, taken every 15 minutes, will help us predict adverse events more quickly and accurately than the measurements taken every few hours.

Respiratory & Heart Rate Data Collection

This is a purely observational study - no intervention is being administered. Data is being collected from the medical record and patient monitoring devices. Participants will wear the cableless device on their chest. This is a lightweight, small device that sticks onto the skin. We will record breathing rate and respiratory rate from this device. We will also collect this information from the medical record. If a participant is placed on telemetry monitoring during the study period, we will collect information about alarm alerting patterns.
