UMDNS information
This Product Comparison covers the following device term and product code as listed in ECRIs Universal Medical Device Nomenclature System (UMDNS): Nurse Call Systems [15-614]
Purpose
Nurse call systems allow patients and staff to summon hospital staff with visual and/or audible signals for routine or emergency needs. These systems can also summon emergency resuscitation teams; a system integrated with a staff locator system can, through the central station or an integrated telephone handset, indicate the location of staff within the hospital.
Principles of operation
Nurse call systems consist of five elements: a central console (annunciator), a remote switching device for each patient or patient room, corridor or intermediate

Reported problems
The most common problem with nurse call systems is that cordsets at patient bedside stations break; they may also fail to signal the annunciator if they become disconnected. Breakage is typically caused by frequent use (especially those with television controls) and accidental dropping. However, cordsets are required by

Stage of development
Many nurse call systems have remained essentially the same for decades, signaling with simple flashing lights and audible tones. The addition of two-way audio communication between the patient room and the central station is common and in some cases mandatory. Incorporating microprocessor-based nurse call systems allows advancements through interfacing with infrared locating systems, the hospitals private branch exchange (PBX), information systems, and ADT systems. Direct links can also be provided to radio pagers and wireless telephones. Some systems also have management and quality control capabilities and can record and report call transactions and statistics.
Purchase considerations
In the United States, nurse call systems are required by various codes and for accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and are often included in the planning and design stage of new hospitals. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that all nurse call systems be certified and/or approved by a nationally recognized testing laboratory (NRTL) such as UL. Hospitals must be aware of the requirements pertaining to each component before purchasing or modifying a nurse call system. Some U.S. states have specified their own requirements for nurse call systems. Hospitals should check with their states department of health for any regulations that may apply to their area. Systems vary in their degree of expandability. Those having only visual/audible signal displays can, under some circumstances, be modified for voice communication, provided the conduits are large enough for additional wiring. Many suppliers can custom design systems to interface with other communications systems (e.g., staff registries, pagers).
