3. Continuous cardiorespiratory and pulse oximetry monitors are invaluable tools for clinical staff during surgery. Unfortunately, however, these devices frequently produce noncritical alarms that include self-resolving events (e.g. tachycardia during crying) or technical problems (e.g. waveform). Such alarms can overwhelm staff leading to alarm fatigue.1

6. Vigilance is essential to protecting patient safety and clinical workflow, yet can be difficult in an environment characterized by long response times for alarms from clinicians and high rates of nonactionable alarms. Researchers and engineering teams can design modernized alarm systems that reduce clinician burden while improving surgical outcomes for all involved parties.

Portable systems now connect seamlessly with multiple mobile phone services allowing their user to travel without compromising their ability to get help in case of emergency. Cellular triangulation allows the system to quickly determine whether someone is inside their home or out enabling faster dispatch times.

12. Before selecting the ideal medical alert system for you and your budget, it is essential to carefully consider all available options. Mobile systems equipped with nationwide wireless voice, data, and GPS technology could be better suited to active users who spend much of their time out and about. However, for those who spend most of their time at home and need the ability to contact help in case of an accident or fall. A base station-only system could be more suitable. Before selecting a medical alert system, be sure to research costs. Prices vary and could become costly if purchasing multiple devices and services at once; thankfully there are affordable medical alert systems that can offer peace of mind at an affordable cost.
