Background: Patient safety literature has long reported the need for early recognition of deteriorating patients. Early warning scores (EWSs) are commonly implemented as "track and trigger," or rapid response systems monitoring acute patient deterioration. This study presents a human factors evaluation hospital-wide transformation in practice, engendered by deployment an innovative electronic observations (eObs) handover system. technology enables real-time information processing at...
