Impact of a standardized nurse observation protocol including MEWS after Intensive Care Unit discharge
Resuscitation, 07/18/2012
De Meester K et al. – The intervention had a positive impact on the observation frequency. Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) had a predictive value for serious adverse events (SAE's) in patients after Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge. The drop in SAE's was substantial but did not reach statistical significance.
