Duplicate requests are removed, so there are no repeated alerts.
In fact, recent updates to Autopilot are designed to ensure that drivers either pay attention or face consequences – the system will disengage after a driver ignores repeated alerts to put hands on the wheel, and will not be available again until the car is stopped and turned off.
As the storm got worse early Tuesday morning, the National Weather Service sent out repeated alerts of imminent flash flooding.
When these types of repeated alerts were counted as single alerts, the number of alerts for the study period dropped from 1449 to 531.
In this context, repeating alert mechanisms would have ensured added safety, reducing the probability that transmission failure may preclude detection.
TRUST results showed that automatic remote monitoring enabled assessment within 24h in 51% of cases Differing messaging mechanisms influenced early discovery: thus single transmissions were vulnerable to detection failure but late detection was reduced by repeating alerts.
An artefact (the repeat alert, fig 2) had been designed, which formalised and supported the "alertness" expectation, helped to achieve consistency between reception staff when applying judgment in uncertain situations, and formally designated the management of uncertainty as doctors' work.
Alert appearance was limited to five/admission with no repeat alert for any individual user for 4 h.
The repeat alert artefact in Beech incorporated three common contingencies (items requested early; overdue drug review; item listed in past drugs but not on the repeat list).
This system in Clover seemed to serve a similar function to the repeat alert at Beech, but the ostensive routine was narrower and more rigidly defined.
If the drug had been prescribed in the past, the receptionist restarted the drugs (by keying "R" for restart), issued the prescription along with a completed repeat alert (fig 2), and placed it in the relevant doctor's in-box.
