You are a manager of the Child Specialty Clinic at a major University Hospital Center. You are also a member of the Ethics Committee. Today is your monthly Ethics Committee Meeting. The Committee consists of the Committee Chair, a recording Secretary, an ICU doctor, three nurses, a social worker, a Nurse Practitioner, the CNO, the Chief Medical Officer, the Chaplin, a public member, a nurse from the pediatric ICU, and a doctor from the Pediatric ICU.

The reason for the ethics committee meeting is there is a situation in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). A Baby Bundle was born yesterday with anencephaly. Because he had trouble breathing, he was placed on a ventilator and is in the NICU.
