ABSTRACT
A physician-nurse collaborative team developed and implemented a research-based protocol and algorithm for improving vital signs monitoring and early intervention for at-risk patients. Project evaluation showed that in general the protocol and algorithm were used appropriately and consistently and prevented negative patient outcomes.
