Modified Early Warning System improves patient safety and clinical outcomes in an academic community hospital.

Mathukia C, Fan W, Vadyak K, Biege C, Krishnamurthy M. J Community Hosp Intern Med Perspect. 2015;5:26716.

The introduction of a modified early warning system at a community academic medical center was associated with more rapid response team activations (from 0.24 to 0.48 per 100 patient-days), but fewer code blues and a decline in overall inpatient mortality (from 2.3% in 2011 to 1.5% in 2013).
