Résumé
Pediatric intensive care unit nurses can be exposed to hundreds of alarms per patient they care for each shift. The exposure to so many alarms can cause nurses to be desensitized to future alarms and thus increase the time to respond to alarms. This is one of the largest patient safety concerns within health care today. Steps should be taken to mitigate the number of alarms nurses experience so that they can properly respond to actionable alarms.
