How many patients (if any) have you had code during your watch...

while under anesthesia, or while still in the OR? I have read conflicting information as to who is in charge during such a scenario. To me it makes sense that the surgeon would be unless the cause could be definitively ascertained as anesthesia related. Has this happened to you and if so how did it play out? If you are reticent to put such a "personal" account down for posterity, perhaps you have direct knowledge of the experience of others.

a code - in the OR should always be run by the anesthetist... for two reasons

1) if the patient is coding during the case the surgeon needs to finish up their surgery or help out by doing CPR or cardiac massage

2) surgeons have no clue about codes and haven't run one in ages - in fact most of them once they are out of residency don't always renew their ACLS so they are a bit out of touch...

Amen, Tenesma.
