Comfort Measures Only
From Gomerpedia
Comfort measures only (or CMO) pertains to the treatment of a burned out health care professional, with the focus on making the dying process a natural one and one where comfort is maximized.[1][2] It is not uncommon for interns, during their first six months of training, to wish to become CMO, though the ACGME mandates they stay Full Code until after they matriculate their residency program.
