It's ok. One time Ortho cancelled the surgery on my patient for their open fracture because they thought the patient was brain dead. Patient was a whole GCS 6 and probably could have been GCS 8 if the eyes weren't completely swollen shut. It was the first week in July. They got confused by the OPO note. (All patients admitted with a GCS 3 get auto referral to organ procurement)
