摘要

Rapid response systems (RRS) were introduced in the 1990s to address acute patient deterioration outside intensive care units, aiming to prevent adverse outcomes through timely assessment and intervention. While RRS have been widely adopted across many countries, their effectiveness and optimal implementation strategies continue to be debated. These uncertainties arise from differences in study designs, hospital settings, and implementation approaches, highlighting the challenges of implementing and evaluating such complex interventions. This review outlines the key steps for successful RRS implementation, explores strategies to overcome implementation barriers, and highlights strategies for continuous improvement and evaluation of established RRS initiatives.
