SUPPRESSION OF INTENSIVE CARE UNIT FALSE

ALARMS BASED ON THE ARTERIAL BLOOD

PRESSURE SIGNAL
 Patient monitoring in Intensive Care Units
(ICU) requires collection and processing of
high volumes of data. High sensitivity of
sensors leads to significant number of false
alarms which cause alarm fatigue. Reduction
of false alarms can lead to better reaction
time of medical personnel. This study aims to
develop a method for false alarm suppression
and evaluate it on a publicly available dataset
with manually annotated alarms.
 Blood pressure is one of the major diseases in
the world to control that we are doing lot of
things.
 When we are in hospital the blood pressure
patients are monitored using the human
power that is very time consuming.
 To overcome this problem we design a
project that is we can monitored through PC
with help of sensors and through wireless
communication.
 High sensitivity of sensors leads to significant

 Reduction of false alarms can lead to better

 This study aims to develop a method for false

publicly available dataset with manually
annotated alarms.
 First, automated feature engineering was
performed using the signal for Arterial Blood
Pressure (ABP) and a processed signal that
contained the times of each heartbeat from the
ABP signal.
 Here the blood pressure sensor if fixed in the
patient’s body and the blood pressure details is
transmitted through the Zigbee wireless
communication to the PC in the monitored
section.
 And if any abnormal condition is happened the
buzzer will alert the user in the monitoring
section. This information’s are displayed in LCD
display.
