Introduction - Sicker patients generally have more vital sign assessments, particularly immediately before an adverse outcome, and especially if the vital sign monitoring schedule is driven by an early warning score (EWS) value. This lack of independ

Aim of study To develop a validated, paper-based, aggregate weighted track and trigger system (AWTTS) that could serve as a template for a national early warning score (EWS) for the detection of patient deterioration. Materials and methods Using exis

Summary Objectives There is no up-to-date literature review of physiologically based, aggregate weighted ‘track and trigger’ systems (AWTTS) and few data on their predictive ability for serious adverse outcomes. The aim of this study was to descr

Introduction - Although the weightings to be summed in an early warning score (EWS) calculation are small, calculation and other errors occur frequently, potentially impacting on hospital efficiency and patient care. Use of a simpler EWS has the pote

Aim of study - To build an early warning score (EWS) based exclusively on routinely undertaken laboratory tests that might provide early discrimination of in-hospital death and could be easily implemented on paper.Materials and methods - Using a data
