The issue of alarm fatigue and patient safety has become a ‘center stage’ concern for healthcare providers across the country over the last two decades. In fact, the Emergency Care Research Institute (ECRI) named alarm hazards as the #1 Health Technology Hazard in 2013. The number of alarm signals in healthcare facilities can surpass several hundred per patient each day – which can translate to thousands of alarms on every unit and tens of thousands throughout the hospital. While alarms are an important part of patient care, they can reach overwhelming quantities. So, it’s no wonder that clinicians can become desensitized, overwhelmed or immune to the sounds, and can suffer from ‘Alarm Fatigue.’ The risks to patient safety are real. Common injuries resulting from alarm hazards can include falls, delays in treatment, medication errors, or in the worst case – death. The Joint Commission Sentinel Database reports 98 alarm-related events between January 2009 and June 2012. Of the 98 reported events, 80 resulted in death, 13 in permanent loss of function, and five in unexpected additional care or extended stay. Unfortunately, these occurrences are happening more and more frequently. In June 2013, the Joint Commission established a new 2014 National Patient Safety Goal (NPSG) to address improving the safety of clinical alarm systems in hospitals. The NPSG requires hospital and critical access hospital leaders to set alarm management as a priority, establish a formal policy and provide staff training around alarm safety.
