Well, we know that if that's the patient of the first woman consultant in the SUI, he improved and was discharged. Mother nature or good doctoring takes its course?

Indeed. That was going to be my next point. Either the boy dies - in which case you can't claim to confuse him with Jack later, or he lives - in which case would you really discharge him later that afternoon after he'd had an arrest? I call BS somewhere there.

Good points. An arrest, a resuscitation, lie on a spectrum including a false alarm. People attending won't know for a bit. Dr BG must have been very confident, impressive and assertive in the evening to get a team to wrongly stop.

Quite. Having earlier failed to *prevent* other HCPs from saving the first boy when they weren't supposed to do so? This piece suggests there were 2 DNACPR mistakes on the ward that day. Not just Jack's. That's assuming we choose to believe what's written here, of course.

What do you find odd?

Makes no sense to me. Surely Consultant A wouldn't discharge a terminally ill 2yr old boy marked DNACPR who had suffered an arrest that very day, only to be inappropriately saved by CPR being wrongfully carried out, despite BG's attempts to stop them? See where I'm going?

There was no morning arrest or resuscitation of the consultant's patient. "Resuscitation" might not imply arrest.

Sorry, my bad on the arrest point. One of the downfalls of stepping into an unfamiliar field. I think the point about being appropriate for discharge stands though, no?

Picked up and everyone wants them back home, sounds reasonable.

Oh it does? Blimey. That's not something I'd ever have imagined after such a major medical event.

Why? If a child is dying, why would we stop them going home if we can possibly make it happen?
