“…All ED-EWS studies were in high-income countries (HICs) and distributed as the following; among all the studies 3 were from Australia (New South Wales NSW), [14,16,18] and the rest was divided into 3,2,1,1,1 for the United States [17,19,23], Italy [13,21], UK [15], Taiwan [20], and Korea [22], respectively. The majority demonstrated overall good capacity as an EWS where performance evaluation revealed the independent effectiveness of 5 systems (US [17], Italy [13], UK [15], Taiwan [20], Korea [22]) and the complementary usefulness of 3 (US [19], Italy [21], Australia [18]) in addition to the supplementary effectiveness of one US EWS [23]. Only 2 Australian ED-EWSs were deemed either of mere potential benefit or ineffective overall [14,16].…”
