This Clinical Study will be conducted as a comparative study focusing on usability and efficiency by comparing alarm burden pre- and post-implementation of an "Alarm Advisor software".
In a first phase of data collection (pre-implementation) all alarms of an intensive care unit population are recorded.
In an interim period an Alarm Advisor software will be introduced to the unit.
In a second phase (post-implementation) the same set of alarm data will be recorded.
The "Alarm Advisor" Software can identify alarms based on criteria set by the medical staff and provide hints to reduce alarms and alarm nuisance (e.g. by proposing adjustments of alarm limits).
The effect of reduction of recurring nuisance alarms through the implementation of the Alarm Advisor shall be evaluated.
