In general, pathology residents run FROM codes.
I have heard of patients coding during FNA procedures and while on pheresis/transfusion medicine. If you are ACLS certified then I suppose you could participate if a warm body is needed but most hospitals have code teams that would be called.
I'm not sure what the response would be if a pathology resident tried to RUN a code.

I ran a code once while on the transfusion medicine service. Afterwards, all of my clinical colleges slapped me on the back and called me their friend. They said they respected my career decision and invited me out for beers after work. I was never picked last for pickup basketball ever again.

🙂 Thanks! My sport is hockey, though.
I seen em enough on TV that I think I could do it.
I just stood by with a scalpel and waited until they called the code, then did the freshest autopsies ever.
(just kidding... warm autopsies are creepy for most of us FPs, including this one).

Sure
In Canada our PGY 1 consists of 6 months of medicine and 6 months of surgical specialties (including gyn). I've run tons of codes, but never lead one. I always refused to intubate. Still I managed quite a few ''precodes'' (atropine to bradycardic patients, bipaps, lasix etc).
