Description
The increasing use of digital technologies is changing healthcare professional’s activities, especially as it relates to patient quality data. Technologies that supply large amounts of data, that can be used to extract knowledge, can support nurses’ decision-making process and ultimately improve the quality of healthcare services. One such example is the regional database housing the Central Telemetry Monitoring Unit (CTMU) data. This enormous database provides valuable information on the number of CTMU alarms that are accepted by unit and individual caregiver in the east region of Corewell Health. To improve the CTMU alarm acceptance rate on 9 North Medical, a plan was put into place, utilizing technology, for nurses to better understand the overall process.
