Registered outcomes8

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryOverall Rate of Escalation10 monthsRate of escalation of care from floor to Stepdown, Telemetry, ICU, per 1,000 patient bed days.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Requiring Blood Pressure Support10 monthsNumber of participants requiring blood pressure support agents such as initiation of vasopressor medication or administration of fluid bolus.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Requiring Respiratory Support10 monthsNumber of participants requiring respiratory support intervention such as initiation of nasal cannula to high flow or frequency of intubation.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Experienced a Cardiac Arrest Episode10 monthsThe number of patients who had a cardiac arrest.
SecondaryMortality RateDuration of hospital stay, until discharge, regardless of stay length for patients who died in hospital, or 30 days after admission, starting from date of admission, up to 6 weeks.Number of Mortalities - Combined In-hospital and 30-day mortality. Mortalities only counted once. 30-day mortality includes those patients who died in-hospital within 30 days.
SecondaryNotification Frequency - Number of Alerts Sent Per Day to Providers10 monthsThe number is calculated as average number of alerts sent per day over all the days in the study period.
SecondaryNumber of Calls10 monthsThe average number of calls to RRT made per patient, regardless of alert. Not evaluated.
SecondarySensitivity and Specificity of the RRT Alert10 months
The performance of the alert will be evaluated by calculating the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, precision, recall, and F1-score. This will be done both for the overall escalation rate and if possible for individual escalations (ICU, step-down, telemetry) and death.
