Study probes link between 'Do not Resuscitate' orders and ICU deaths

NCT ID NCT06373068

Summary

This study looks back at the medical records of 1,500 critically ill patients to understand if having a 'do not resuscitate' order is connected to a higher chance of dying. Researchers will check if this link holds true even after considering factors like the patient's age, sex, and how sick they were. The goal is to gather knowledge to help doctors and families make better-informed decisions about care.
