Certified AI Triage of ICU Alarms

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 11, 2026 · UTC

In the VTaC benchmark 71% of ventricular-tachycardia alarms are false, but silencing a real one can delay recognition of a dangerous arrhythmia. We reframe alarm reduction as three-way triage (retain, suppress, or defer) and bound the decision this analysis treats as harmful: among suppressed alarms, the fraction that were genuine stays below a user-set budget with 95% confidence, under i.i.d. event sampling. Alarms sharing a waveform record are dependent, so the clustered analysis is a sensitivity check. On the official split a 5% budget certifies in all three seeds, suppressing 74.8% of fals
