Abstract
Hospital alarms today indicate urgent clinical need, but they are seldom “true.” False alarms are contributing to the ever-increasing issue of alarm fatigue, or desensitization, among doctors and nurses. Alarm fatigue is a high-priority health care concern because of its potential to compromise health care quality and inflict harm on patients. To address this concern, we have engineered Dynamic Alarm Systems for Hospitals (D.A.S.H.), a dynamic alarm system that self-regulates alarm loudness based on the environmental noise level and incorporates differentiable and learnable alarms. D.A.S.H., with its ability to adapt to environmental noise and encode nuanced physiological information, may improve patient safety and attenuate clinician alarm fatigue.
