They are awake during the compressions.
We stop for the pulse and rhythm check.
They're no longer awake.
People can feel it.
And I think that's the concern.
Another one is true harms to the patient physically.
Yeah.
And I was going to add to that, you know, Eric, I think to your point, like that the doctor can stop in five seconds.
Well, where is the doctor?
The doctor could be at home in bed.
You know, it's the nurse who has to implement the doctor's order.
That nurse is going to be there on the body doing these chest compressions until the doctor shows up.
And like how awful for them to have to go through that and hear the attending doctor say, hey, I know this code isn't going to work, but you need to physically get on that body and do that.
Yeah, I think part of it's legal.
I think part of it is, you know, learning the history of CPR, CPR was never intended to be done on every patient.
It was done in the operating room on patients that they thought could medically benefit from it.
And somehow it got extrapolated to everyone.
And I think one of my teachers in my other fellowship, Dan Bronner,
He wrote a lot about this.
And some people say that because it's a billable diagnosis, we can bill for CPR.
