RESUMEN
Algunas veces, la muerte es parte del proceso natural de la enfermedad; en otras, se debe a los cuidados deficientes, manifestándose sutilmente con signos o síntomas que en ocasiones no se detectan y, que al volverse evidentes, resulta que es demasiado tarde para revertirlos. La falta de reconocimiento o respuesta al deterioro clínico en el hospital se denomina «falla para rescatar» y esto atenta contra la vida de los pacientes.
Según algunos estudios, los enfermos que cursan con deterioro clínico muestran datos objetivos y subjetivos durante las primeras 6 a 24 horas previas a que se presente una complicación grave. El reconocimiento temprano del deterioro y una intervención oportuna pueden disminuir la incidencia de paro cardiaco o la necesidad de cuidados intensivos, además de mejorar la evolución y disminuir los días de estancia hospitalaria.
De esta manera, en todo el mundo se ha implementado el concepto de «equipo de respuesta rápida». Su función consiste en acudir en respuesta ante la activación de un código que identifica al paciente en riesgo. El equipo realiza una evaluación clínica y asegura el establecer un manejo multidisciplinario adecuado para procurar la buena evolución, aumentando así, las posibilidades de supervivencia del paciente.
