From the reviews:

“This is an overview work describing the evolution and current practice of physician and nurse led rapid response programs. … Hospitalists, critical care trainees, and other hospital-based practitioners responsible for response to acute changes in patient condition are an appropriate audience for this book … . This book provides historical perspective, state-of-the-art reviews, and a summary of challenges facing practitioners using this tool to improve outcomes.” (David J. Dries, Doody’s Review Service, May, 2011)

Successor to the editors' groundbreaking book on medical emergency teams, Textbook of Rapid Response Systems addresses the problem of patient safety and quality of care; the logistics of creating an RRS (resource allocation, process design, workflow, and training); the implementation of an RRS (organizational issues, challenges); and the evaluation of program results. Based on successful RRS models that have resulted in reduced in-hospital cardiac arrest and overall hospital death rates, this book is a practical guide for physicians, hospital administrators, and other healthcare professionals who wish to initiate an RRS program within their own institutions.
