Usefulness of Early Warning Systems in Detecting Early Clinical Deterioration After Intensive Care Discharge

July 16, 2019 updated by: ILKE KUPELI, Erzincan University

The VitalPac Early Warning Score (VIEWS) scoring system, developed by Prytherch et al., Is an early warning system that aims to predict the first 24-hour mortality in emergency patients.

National early warning score (NEWS) is another early warning scoring system recommended by the Royal College of Physicians in London to detect early clinical deterioration in hospitalized patients.

The aim of this study was to determine the early clinical deterioration after ICU and hence the rate of admission to intensive care and to evaluate whether these two scoring systems can be used to determine early clinical deterioration in intensive care early discharge.
