And I've heard, I mean, nationally, I've heard many clinicians say, we are doing this for this purpose.
It is because of our state law.
That's why we are doing this slow code.
They are.
And the reason I did this article was because people didn't believe me.
I didn't believe this was a thing until I saw it as a resident.
I thought, holy crap, what is this?
So people didn't believe me outside of medicine, so I had to prove it.
So with colleagues, we looked at two different medical centers.
We surveyed internal medicine residents.
And
We surveyed internal medicine residents, critical care nurses, pulmonary critical care physicians, cardiology physicians, fellows, about how often are these happening at their hospital.
First, are they happening?
And then how often are they happening?
And what we found is that about 69 percent, they said that they are happening at their hospital and that they have been involved in one slow code in the past year.
Some people said they're up to 10.
They've been involved in 10 slow codes in the past year.
So it varied by participant.
But many people have been actively involved in these slow codes.
That's what I think that shocked me to the core because over half of the people we surveyed, they thought that they can be ethical.
