National PEWS Beta Digital Specification

The National Systemwide Paediatric Observations Tracking Programme (SPOT) is currently developing a standardised national Paediatric Early Warning system (PEWS), with the aim of creating a national standard for supplier platforms that facilitates a standardised and interoperable method of tracking and detecting the deteriorating child. This PEW system has initially been designed to be used within an inpatient setting. In preparation for the upcoming release of a National PEWS Beta Digital Specification we would run like to run a market engagement event to engage with potential suppliers for NHS Trust early warning scores systems.

There will be a virtual event on the 17th May 2023 at 3:30-5pm for suppliers to attend to understand the proposals for digital specifications and the process for feedback on the draft beta version. The final digital specification will be published later this year. Please register for this event by emailing the name of the proposed attendee and organisation/company affiliation, to england.pews@nhs.net by COP on the 16th May 2023.
