AVELLANEDA-MARTINEZ, Sandra et al. Early Warning System Covid-19 in the electronic care records of inpatients. Ene. [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.3, e14312.  Epub Apr 05, 2021. ISSN 1988-348X.

Objective

To design an early warning system with signs and symptoms of COVID-19 disease in order to detect the levels of risk on suffering from this disease, to establish the level of vigilance and activate the appropriate protocols.

Method

A descriptive study in three phases: Bibliographic review; Consensus by experts and Piloting of early warning.

Results

Variables considered as predictors of severity to create the early warning algorithm were: dry cough, fever, oxygen saturation, dyspnea and PCR. The algorithm was designed and implemented in the Open Line Care Management electronic application (GACELA Care) ®.

Conclusions

With the implementation of early warning system, better care management is expected in inpatients that are susceptible to COVI-19.
