and Heart Rate Values at Rest
These values have been created from population tables of the normal distribution of oxygen
saturation and Heart Rate values within the general population. The colour coding by traffic
light colours are a good indicator if the reading is
Normal or Fair (Green zone), Poor or Concern
(Amber zone) or Alert (Red zone ).
NEWS
The National Early Warning Score (NEWS), like many existing Early Warning Score systems, is
based on a simple scoring system in which a number is allocated to physiological measure-
ments (Vital Signs) already routinely measured in hospital and recorded on the patient clinical
chart. The six simple physiological parameters form the basis of the scoring system:
1. respiratory rate;
2. oxygen saturations;
3. temperature;
4. systolic blood pressure;
5. heart rate; and
6. level of consciousness.
A score is allocated to each of these Vital
Signs as they are measured and aggre-
gated, and the magnitude of the score
reflects how extreme the parameter varies
from the norm.
The Royal College of Physicians
(RCP) advocates standardising the use of
a NEWS system across the NHS in order to
drive the ‘step change’ required in the as-
sessment and response to acute illness.
