So, I know if the case ends early, you most likely have done enough to finish the case successfully, (or if you've put in crazy orders, might have killed the patient or managed them inappropriately), but if you don't finish BEFORE the allotted computer time finishes, can you still have finished the case successfully?
Like one of the cases, a COPD exacerbation.. I do all the orders the UWorld explanation has said and that we all know to do.. cxr, abg, supplemental 02, steroids, abx, pulse ox, albuterol/ipratropium, etc etc, but i can't get the case to end early. In a situation like that, where I know I've done appropriate management for the case, but it doesn't end early, I could still be doing it successfully right?
