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".

Clinical Trial Description

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.
