Creating and maintaining an effective alarms committee: a conversation with clinical alarm experts
Alarm committees help hospitals turn alarm data into clear governance, sustained action and safer workflows. Experts share how to build momentum.
Improve workflows, operational efficiencies and clinical decision-making, by capturing and harmonizing data from virtually any medical device. Next, deliver the data to a downstream system, where it can be accessed on clinicians’ phones or mobile devices, in near-real time. Our solution helps you:
A single network bridge with up to 8 serial ports and small form factor extends its flexibility beyond the EMR. The Axon hub provides robust bidirectional medical device connectivity in areas with a high concentration of beds, including the ICU, PACU and NICU.
Combined with the Vitals Stream or Chart Xpress application, the Neuron mobile clinical computer manages data and connectivity status of multiple devices, all from a single touch-screen display. It is ideal whenever patient ID, ease of charting and security are top priorities for device integration.
Designed for ORs and high-acuity care areas, the Vitals Stream application provides continuous near-real time vitals data and connectivity status. At a glance, users can clearly see which devices are connected and associate all captured data with the right patient ID.

Despite regulatory mandates, clinical alarm fatigue persists due to unmanaged data, unclear ownership, and competing priorities. Overcoming these barriers requires multidisciplinary committees and technology investments.
