Abstract
Objective Observe and analyze the effect of the criticall rapid response system in general wards.Methods Analyze the data of CROT cases initiated in 2016-2019, and statistically analyze the reasons for the initiation, on-site treatment, the outcomes of patients, and the number of organ function support of patients transferred to ICU. Results A total of 312 cases were initiated in 43 months. The top three reasons for initiation were: unconsciousness (29.79%), respiratory distress (19.17%), and hypotension (18.60%). The effective call rate was 91.99%, and only 68.27% were transferred to ICU. Mechanical ventilation (89.67%), blood purification (85.92%), and vasoactive drugs (82.16%) were applied in ICU. Conclusions The critical rapid response system can guarantee the safety of inpatients in general wards, but the activatiaon characteristics are worthy of further discussion.
