Resumen
HOLANDA PENA, M.S. et al. EICS (Extended Intensive Care Service): Looking outside the ICU. Med. Intensiva [online]. 2011, vol.35, n.6, pp.349-353. ISSN 0210-5691.
Early warning systems (EWS) identify patients at risk with a view to improving morbidity and mortality rates using early therapeutic and transfer actions. We have recently implemented an EWS that focuses on two main aspects: the guidance of care after discharge from the ICU, and recognition of the onset of deteriorating health among adult patients in general wards through physiologically based early warning scores.
