Medical Device Alarms and the MIMIC-II Database for Multiparameter Data Modeling

Some months ago I meant to put this on the blog and it has been sitting in draft form wallowing.
In reference to the medical device alarms topic, there is a very good source for high frequency and fidelity monitoring data. The MIMIC-II database is an excellent source for waveform level modeling data taken from critical care patients and deidentified for use in research. A key reference for the scope of the data found in the database (which is generally available for access at no cost) can be found in the following paper:
