The American TV series The Good Doctor was launched in 2017 on ABC, based on the 2013 South Korean TV series of the same name. Focusing on the work of doctors, the drama achieved popularity and is currently in its sixth season. The main character in the show is Dr. Shaun Murphy, a talented young surgeon diagnosed with autism and savant syndrome. He has an incredible memory and intuition in terms of patient diagnosis, although in the personal realm his development is at the level of a ten-year-old child.
According to CinemaBlend, in the third episode of the sixth season, while the doctor characters are trying to save a patient by operating, her heart stops and resuscitation is required. When Shaun later comes to her to tell her what happened, she tells him that she died, before anyone even tells her that her heart had actually stopped. The woman describes the events in detail, as if she watched them from above, and also adds that she saw her late husband.
However, the doctors’ opinions of her story differ. Perez believes that the patient had a spiritual experience. Shaun has another explanation: something else is wrong with her brain. Asher has an alternative point of view: “She didn’t have an out-of-body experience. She described a code, which only proves that she watches medical shows on television. And the heaven that she told us about, it’s all recycled clichés. The peace, nice colors, loved ones waiting.”
As the author of the article adds, indeed, anyone who watches medical shows (and all six seasons of The Good Doctor) can easily describe the sequence of actions undertaken by doctors during patient resuscitation.
Can you describe the process of resuscitation without having witnessed one in person?
