Lessons Learned from Efforts to Reduce Overuse of Cardiac Telemetry Monitoring
2020, Joint Commission Journal on Quality and Patient SafetyAdherence to advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) guidelines during in-hospital cardiac arrest is associated with improved outcomes
2018, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :We also found that cardiac arrests that occurred in patients on cardiac monitor were associated with better outcomes. The literature provides conflicting data on this issue, with some studies suggesting monitored events are associated with improved outcomes [14–16] and others showing no association [17]. Our results confirm the findings of the majority of studies, suggesting an association between cardiac monitoring and improved outcomes.
