life-sustaining treatment

Read a random definition: abogado

A quick definition of life-sustaining treatment:

A life-sustaining treatment is a medical procedure or treatment that helps keep a person alive, but does not cure their illness or condition. It is used to prolong or sustain life, and may include things like giving medicine, providing food and water through tubes, or using machines to help with breathing.

A more thorough explanation:

A life-sustaining treatment is a medical procedure or treatment that is used to prolong or sustain life without curing the underlying medical condition. It is also known as a life-prolonging procedure.

Examples of life-sustaining treatments include:

  • Antibiotics
  • Artificial nutrition and hydration
  • Ventilators
  • Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
  • Dialysis

These treatments are used to keep a person alive when their body is unable to function properly on its own. For example, antibiotics may be used to treat an infection that is causing a person's body to shut down. Artificial nutrition and hydration may be used to provide a person with the nutrients and fluids they need to survive when they are unable to eat or drink on their own.

Life-sustaining treatments are often used in situations where a person's condition is not expected to improve, but they can help to keep the person alive for a longer period of time.
