Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Clinical Nursing
  • Patient Safety

Background:

  • Alarm fatigue, or clinician desensitization to frequent alarms, is a significant healthcare challenge.
  • It compromises patient safety and negatively affects healthcare staff well-being, especially nurses.
  • Understanding nurses' experiences is crucial for effective alarm management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize nurses' perspectives and experiences with alarm fatigue.
  • To identify key challenges associated with alarm fatigue in clinical settings.
  • To outline potential strategies for mitigating alarm fatigue.

Main Methods:

  • An integrative review of peer-reviewed, English-language primary studies published between 2014 and 2024.
  • Studies focused on nurses' perceptions/experiences of alarm fatigue or alarm-management interventions.
  • Searches were conducted across four databases, with 36 studies included following PRISMA guidelines.

Main Results:

  • Nurses acknowledge the importance of alarms but develop negative attitudes due to alarm fatigue.
  • Alarm fatigue contributes to desensitization, potentially leading to missed critical events.
  • Identified challenges include alarm overload and lack of standardized protocols.

Conclusions:

  • Addressing alarm fatigue necessitates a multifaceted approach.
  • Strategies should integrate technological solutions, enhanced education, standardized policies, and organizational improvements.
  • A holistic strategy is essential to improve both patient safety and staff well-being.
