I was working In the icu last night and had a patient who was really sick (crash cart in the room) Near death sick but full code. Near shift change I noticed she was desating and bagged her back to the 90s. The nurses were livid. They told me they were waiting for her to code and I should’ve let her. That the nurse practitioner knows she’s sick and we could’ve just coded her 1 round. I tried to explain that I can’t have her desating in epic just bc the nurse practitioner knows she’s sick (BP was low but holding out). Did I do the right thing? Should I have just called a rapid? Every code/rapid I’ve been in is usually acute or BP tanks before o2. I’ve never had a waiting for someone to code situation and didn’t really know what to do.
