On Monday, PEDIATRICS posted a to-be-published debate article between Joel Frader, Eric Kodish, and John Lantos. The debate is whether a DNR order is appropriate for a 2-year-old girl with septo-optic dysplasia, microcephaly, seizure disorder, and other issues. The parents are developmentally delayed and do not have custody. Both the grandmother, who has custody, and the state child protection agency agree with the DNR order, if the hospital ethics committee approves it. A second point of debate is over whether to do a ("symbolic") show code instead of a (more honest) no code for the sake of the parents.
