Fullest Code Possible

2015 ACLS Algorithm.jpg

The fullest code possible trumps a standard Full Code and provides the patient with interrupted care long after the death. Whereas hospice focuses on quality of life, the fullest code possible focuses on the quantity of life.[1]


Components


There are several components to the fullest code possible:

  1. it occurs infinitely;
  2. all health care professionals within a 25-mile radius are involved[2];
  3. all medications within the hospital pharmacy are consumed, especially bicarb;
  4. shocks are continued until the city's energy grid is fully depleted;
  5. ECMO is implemented;
  6. dialysis is implemented; and
  7. the kitchen sink has been thrown.[3]
