Abstract
BACKGROUND: Too many unnecessary alarms in the intensive care unit are one of the main reasons for alarm fatigue: Medical staff is overburdened and fails to respond appropriately. This endangers both patients and staff. Currently, there are no algorithms that can determine which alarms are clinically relevant and which are not.
