A Model-Based Expert System for Interpretation of Hemodynamic Data .. - Zhao (1997) (Correct)
....response to alarms that are frequently in error, or even ignore them [24] The large amount of monitored ICU data may create information overload, which leads to errors and mishaps in ICU care. There are occasional tragedies, most of which 24 are due to human error, reported in ICU care. In [1], Abramson estimated that about 90 of 150 adverse occurrences in a surgical ICU were caused by human error. We may also find the similar results regarding human errors which happened in ICU care [29] So we may expect that with the development of medical instruments, more and more clinical data ....

The Application Of The Ecological Interface Design Approach.. - Sharp, Helmicki (Correct)
....Clinicians are required to make many time critical decisions and carry out critical actions in an environment where human errors can have catastrophic consequences. This is particularly true of intensive care medicine where often heroic medical management is required if patients are to survive [Abramson, 1980]. Furthermore, human errors do occur in this environment. One study reported that more than 60 of all incident reports in a medical surgical intensive care unit were caused by human error [Abramson, 1980] In many ways the supervisory control environment of industrial settings (e.g. nuclear ....

One study reported that more than 60 of all incident reports in a medical surgical intensive care unit were caused by human error [Abramson, 1980]. In many ways the supervisory control environment of industrial settings (e.g. nuclear power plants, chemical processing plants, etc. are similar to the environment of an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) In both environments people are forced to make time critical decisions that can have ....
