Rapid Response System: A Practical Guide provides a practical approach to the evaluation, differential diagnosis, and management of common medical and surgical emergencies such as cardiac arrest, acute respiratory failure, seizures, and hemorrhagic shock occurring in hospitalized patients. Less common and special circumstances such as pediatric, obstetric, oncologic, neurologic and behavioral emergencies as well as palliative care for terminally ill patients encountered in the context of rapid response team events are also discussed. An overview of commonly performed bedside emergency procedures by rapid response team members complements the clinical resources that may need to be brought to bear during the course of the rapid response team event. Finally, an overview of organization, leadership, communication, quality and patient safety surrounding rapid response team events is provided. This book is written with medical students, junior physicians and nursing staff in mind working in both academic and community hospital settings. Both a novice and an experienced healthcare provider involved in a rapid response system will find this handbook to be valuable supplement to the clinical experiences gained though active engagement in the system. Hospital administrators and senior management staff will also find this book to be useful in the evaluation of quality and performance of the rapid response system, management of staff attitudes and behavior, performance of peer review, care for second victims and implementation of countermeasures for patient safety problems discovered in the course of rapid response system reviews.

Successor to the editors' groundbreaking book on medical emergency teams, Textbook of Rapid Response Systems addresses the problem of patient safety and quality of care; the logistics of creating an RRS (resource allocation, process design, workflow, and training); the implementation of an RRS (organizational issues, challenges); and the evaluation of program results. Based on successful RRS models that have resulted in reduced in-hospital cardiac arrest and overall hospital death rates, this book is a practical guide for physicians, hospital administrators, and other healthcare professionals who wish to initiate an RRS program within their own institutions.

Why Critical Care Evolved METs? In early 2004, when Dr. Michael DeVita informed me that he was cons- ering a textbook on the new concept of Medical Emergency Teams (METs), I was surprised. At Presbyterian-University Hospital in Pittsburgh we int- duced this idea some 15 years ago, but did not think it was revolutionary enough to publish. This, even though, our fellows in critical care medicine training were all involved and informed about the importance of “C- dition C (Crisis),” as it was called to distinguish it from “Condition A (Arrest). ”We thought it absurd to intervene only after cardiac arrest had occurred,because most cases showed prior deterioration and cardiac arrest could be prevented with rapid team work to correct precluding problems. The above thoughts were logical in Pittsburgh, where the legendary Dr. Peter Safar had been working since the late 1950s on improving current resuscitation techniques, ?rst ventilation victims of apneic from drowning, treatment of smoke inhalation, and so on. This was followed by external cardiac compression upon demonstration of its ef?ciency in cases of unexpected sudden cardiac arrest. Dr. Safar devoted his entire professional life to improvement of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. He and many others emphasized the importance of getting the CPR team to o- of-hospital victims of cardiac arrest as quickly as possible.

The rapid response team (RRT) has been developed to prevent mortality from failure to rescue but has failed to show successful outcomes when not activated consistently. A reason for this failure could be that the RRT has been implemented without consideration of the local context. Factors within the context of the environment shape medical surgical nurse's behavior to activate or not to activate the team. The goal of this study was to describe the constraints to activation of the RRT placed on medical surgical nurses when in situations of patient deterioration. Socio-Technical Systems theory and a framework of Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) were used to examine the problem based on the goal of joint optimization of the social context and the technical intervention in order to achieve success. CWA is a framework designed to study complex socio-technical systems with the goal of fully describing the constraints that are imposed on worker behavior by the work domain, decision making, options available, culture, and worker competencies. Twelve qualitative interviews were completed with medical surgical staff nurses, unit management, and nursing/quality management. Directed content analysis was used to analyze the interviews inductively and deductively. A main finding was that support for activation of the RRT exists mainly for acute patient deterioration with objective symptoms and not for subtle patient deterioration with subjective or gradual symptoms. Constraints found include: Nurse staffing and assignments, information availability, hierarchy of consult, experience and knowledge level, adequacy of physician communication and collaboration, expectation of staff to "handle" assignments and go to end of scope of care, and different perceptions of the purpose of the RRT from administration, management and bedside nurses. The RRT is a mechanism that should help expedite care for patients at risk for or actively deteriorating. However, the RRT is not consistently activated for that purpose because of formal and informal constraints on activation that exist in the workplace. Identifying and then lifting these constraints will increase RRT activation, increase support to the bedside nurse, and create a better environment for the RRT to achieve the purpose for which it was designed.
