Use of a continuous single lead electrocardiogram analytic to predict patient deterioration requiring rapid response team activation.

ABSTRACT: Identifying the onset of patient deterioration is challenging despite the potential to respond to patients earlier with better vital sign monitoring and rapid response team (RRT) activation. In this study an ECG based software as a medical device, the Analytic for Hemodynamic Instability Predictive Index (AHI-PI), was compared to the vital signs of heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate, evaluating how early it indicated risk before an RRT activation. A higher proportion of the events had risk indication by AHI-PI (92.71%) than by vital signs (41.67%). AHI-PI indicated risk early, with an average of over a day before RRT events. In events whose risks were indicated by both AHI-PI and vital signs, AHI-PI demonstrated earlier recognition of deterioration compared to vital signs. A
