The table below shows an example of how alerts from patient monitoring systems are
prioritized:
7.3.1 Crisis Alerts
Crisis alerts have the highest priority (1) and signal immediate danger or emergency. These
alerts prompt the user to take immediate action. An example of a crisis alert is a "Code Blue"
alert, often used to indicate a cardiac arrest. Crisis alerts can also be used to signal fire.
