18.2 Early Warning Score (EWS)
The early warning score can help identify early signs of deterioration on the patient, serving as an early warning
indicator of critical or potentially critical illness.
The early warning score system obtains the corresponding scores by monitoring and observing the patient's vital
signs and condition, and then suggests measures based on the score results.
The Monitor provides the following early warning score system:
Modified early warning score (MEWS) system.
National Early Warning Score（NEWS）
National Early Warning Score 2（NEWS2）
The system is a total score system.
Total score system: score each selected parameter and then calculate the total score. The scores of such
parameters are identified by different colors, indicating their criticality level. The user needs to take action if
the total score goes beyond the acceptable range limits
MEWS, NEWS and NEWS2 are only applicable to adult patient.
EWS scoring is not intended for neonatal and pediartric patients
The early warning score results and the suggested measures are provided for reference only, and are
not provided as the direct basis for clinical treatment.
The early warning score cannot be used as a predictor of patient development or overall prognosis; it
is not a tool for clinical judgment and cannot completely replace the clinician's assessment of patients.
The early warning score system is not intended for pregnant women, COPD (chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease) patients or patients under 16 years old.
