Samenvatting

Uit observationeel onderzoek is een lineaire samenhang bekend tussen ziekenhuismortaliteit en het aantal geobserveerde, of elektronisch geregistreerde, signalen van het intreden van een (abnormale) lichamelijke en fysiologische toestand.2-5) Nu zijn dergelijke signalen onvermijdelijk bij stervende patiënten, maar ze dragen ook bij aan de bewaking en adequate interventie in het geval van potentieel letale problemen bij patiënten die een kans hebben om te overleven.
