I used to work in healthcare IT. Running a code is not always only CPR.
Different medications may be pushed (injected into the patient) to help stabilize them. These medications are recorded via a bar code and added to the patients chart in Epic. Epic is the source of truth for the current state of the patient. So if that is suddenly unavailable that is a big problem.
Ok but that point still defeats the premise that Crowdstrike are spending a large enough amount on lobbying that it is hampering their engineering dept.
The system crashed while my coworker was running a code (aka doing CPR) in the ER last night. Healthcare IT is so bad at baseline that we are somewhat prepared for an outage while resuscitating a critical patient.
