LAUSR

Value‐based education is known as one of the affecting factors of professional dignity of medical practitioners, as well as their informed decision‐making in critical clinical settings. Critical situations are the best opportunities to convey professional and moral practice and also the most difficult.[1] The resuscitation or blue code involves calling in a special team to take immediate actions for a patient who has developed cardiopulmonary arrest to bring the patient back to a stable state. The important point is the speed of action that is often life‐saving in the cooperative effort of the resuscitation team with the stake of nurses. In contrast, “slow code” that is mainly enacted in end‐of‐life patients, is limited in terms of number, duration, intensity, or all three. Lantos et al.[2] have defined the slow code as a short‐term intervention that is practically symbolic and apparently effective. In this manner, it seems that we are trying to save the patient life, but we are in fact deceiving the family.
