code cart

Reader's Digest 2月号の記事 'This Will Sting & Burn' は肺病専門の医師が皮膚ガンに罹り、手術の受けることになった話です。
There is the anesthesis machine. The Bovie cautery machine, with its dial for turning up the electric current to cauterize the incision. I try to figure out who is in charge, but no one looks at me or talks to me. What is happening? Why do they need the code cart? Am I really that sick?
"code cart" はＴＶドラマで外科の手術をする時に見かけるカートの様です。そして、"code" と "code blue" 以前（ 4/1/2015と2/15/2016）にやはりReader's Digestの記事に出てきた表現で取り上げました。"code cart" の説明を辞書で確認します。
・Medical Dictionary: A container or cart that can easily and quickly be moved to a patient who has suddenly developed a life-threatening emergency. Supplies should always be replenished and arranged so that the most frequently used first-line drugs and equipment are readily available. Powered equipment, such as a defibrillator, is tested regularly to be certain it is functioning properly.
・Wikipedia: A crash cart or code cart (crash trolley in UK medical jargon) or "MAX cart" is a set of trays/drawers/shelves on wheels used in hospitals for transportation and dispensing of emergency medication/equipment at site of medical/surgical emergency for life support protocols (ACLS/ALS) to potentially save someone's life. The cart carries instruments for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and other medical supplies while also functioning as a support litter for the patient.
"crash cart" だと "code cart" より心肺停止の患者のイメージがわきます。
