A quick definition of life-prolonging procedure:

A life-prolonging procedure is a medical treatment that is used to keep a person alive for a longer period of time. These treatments do not cure the underlying medical condition, but instead help to sustain life. Examples of life-prolonging procedures include CPR, mechanical ventilation, and hemodialysis.

A more thorough explanation:

Life-prolonging procedure

A life-prolonging procedure, also known as a life-sustaining procedure or treatment, is a medical treatment that is used to extend or maintain a person's life without curing the underlying medical condition. Examples of life-prolonging procedures include cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), mechanical ventilation, and hemodialysis.

Life-prolonging procedures are treatments that are used to keep a person alive when their body is not functioning properly. These treatments do not cure the underlying medical condition, but instead, they help to keep the person alive for as long as possible. For example, CPR is used to restart a person's heart when it has stopped beating, while mechanical ventilation is used to help a person breathe when they are unable to do so on their own. Hemodialysis is used to filter a person's blood when their kidneys are not functioning properly. These procedures are used to prolong a person's life, but they do not cure the underlying medical condition.

One manager came in sick wearing a mask, got roasted and stopped wearing it that day. The entire office has been cycling sickness for two weeks now. It may not be super effective but it may help in slowing the spread during meetings when we have to be so close
