Healthcare workers lack a standardized, respectful tool to educate patients and families about the physical reality of CPR and guide code status decisions, leading to inappropriate resuscitation attempts on frail patients.

No dedicated, empathetic digital tool exists for healthcare providers to facilitate conversations about CPR's physical impact and appropriateness; current approach relies on ad-hoc verbal discussions or impersonal advance directive forms.

CodeCompass

CodeCompass is a mobile-friendly decision-aid app that uses simple animations and plain-language explanations to show patients/families what CPR physically involves and helps them make informed code status choices. Clinicians can walk through the visual guide at bedside, then document the conversation and preference directly in the EMR.

  • Interactive decision tree for code status preferences (Full Code, DNR, DNI, etc.)
  • One-tap documentation note with conversation summary and patient decision
  • Multilingual support with culturally sensitive adaptations
Target Users: Hospital-based physicians, nurses, and palliative care specialists involved in code status discussions with adult patients
Revenue Model: Per-seat SaaS subscription at $19/month per clinician or $5,000/year per hospital unit
