What are the Challenges in Implementing Clinical Surveillance?
Despite its benefits, implementing clinical surveillance comes with several challenges:
Data Privacy and Security: Ensuring the confidentiality and security of patient data is paramount. Interoperability Issues: Integrating diverse systems and devices can be complex and requires standardization. Cost: The initial investment in technology and training can be significant. Resistance to Change: Healthcare providers may be resistant to adopting new technologies and workflows. False Alarms: Alarm fatigue due to frequent false alarms can lead to desensitization and missed critical alerts.
