Withdrawing Intensive Life-Sustaining Treatment — Recommendations for Compassionate Clinical Management
Abstract
Despite an ethical and legal consensus regarding the right of patients or their surrogates to refuse life-prolonging therapy, surveys show that dying patients in hospitals in the United States frequently receive unwanted interventions.1,2 One reason for this may be a lack of training among physicians and nurses in the clinical aspects of withdrawing intensive life support. Staff members are highly skilled in aggressive life-extending treatment, and some hospitals now have services specializing in palliative care for patients forgoing life-extending treatment. But there may be no one specifically trained in managing the transition from one style of care to the . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
