The nurses in this Iranian sample had a moderate level of alarm fatigue. Alarm fatigue occurs when repeated exposure to false, insignificant, or repetitive alarms causes overload and desensitisation.

Repeated alarm exposure can produce impatience, indifference, reduced responsiveness, and a stressful work environment.
