Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions about nurse collaboration, answered

Alarm fatigue in nursing is the phenomenon that occurs when clinicians are exposed to multiple alarms of mixed significance and become desensitized to safety alarms due to the sheer number of alarm signals and notifications they receive. Alarm fatigue can lead to missed alarms or delayed responses to critical alarms that put patient safety at risk.

One strategy to prevent alarm fatigue in nursing is to adopt a cloud-based alarm management and
event notification system. Cloud-native alarm management and event notification solutions interface with nurse call systems, physiological monitors, EHR, smart beds, and more to acquire alarms, events, and values in real-time and triage alerts to the right care providers. Unactionable alarms are automatically filtered out by the software and alarm delays can also be put in place to allow for patients to self-correct. If a caregiver is unable to respond in a timely fashion, the software can automatically escalate the alarm to an appropriate team member as defined by the workflow

By reducing alarm clutter and distributing the responsibility for following up on alerts, nurses can work with fewer interruptions and focus on patient care.

Nursing tools like a clinical collaboration platform integrate with a modern alarm management systems reduce the cognitive burden on nurses, meaning nurses can spend less time responding to irrelevant alarms and more time caring for patients. TigerConnect integrates with clinical systems (like nurse calls, physiological monitors, smart beds, and your EHR) to intelligently route alarms to the appropriate caregiver’s mobile device. TigerConnect mitigates alarm fatigue by quieting unnecessary interruptions to deliver actionable notifications from the patient ecosystem directly to caregivers.

One of the most common causes of nurse burnout is cognitive overload from too many irrelevant and unactionable alerts. Hospitals looking to prevent nurse burnout can adopt alarm management technology to filter out irrelevant alerts, route the relevant alerts to the appropriate caregivers, and enrich them with helpful, contextual information. By reducing alarm clutter and distributing the responsibility for following up on alerts, nurses can work with fewer interruptions and focus on patient care.

Furthermore, adopting a clinical collaboration platform can save nurses over 2 hours a day by eliminating time spent on non-value add tasks such as searching for phone numbers, waiting for return calls, and answering non-actionable alerts. Clinical communication and collaboration (CC&C) platforms reduce the cognitive burden of care delivery for nurses by simplifying their workflows and enabling nurses to spend more time with patients.

Clinical collaboration platforms standardize communication and collaboration on a single, secure, integrated, cloud-native platform that streamlines workflows and makes teams more efficient. TigerConnect Clinical Collaboration Platform enables medical care teams and staff to communicate via secure texting, voice and video chat.
