Electronically Recorded National Early Warning Scores, Pain Scores and PONV Scores Among Hospitalized Patients

Finland30,000 participantsStarted 2019-01-01

Plain-language summary

National early warning score (NEWS) enables early detection of patient deterioration in hospital floors. However, there is limited data on the prognostic value of NEWS among actual general ward patients. Further, there is no data on how changes in NEWS-values impact patient outcomes. Very little is known on how post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and pain influences NEWS values and vital signs in general.
