Non-actionable alarms strain hospital resources, contribute to alarm fatigue, and can affect the quality of patient care. But clinicians can cut through the din of non-actionable alarms so they can become less desensitized and create a more peaceful environment. By tracking a clinician’s silencing behavior, Philips Alarm Advisor will alert the clinician when it appears that a patient’s warning system may be set with thresholds that are too sensitive. The tool provides a notification on screen, prompting the clinician to evaluate that patient’s condition and either take action or personalize the patient’s alarm limits.
