"The code" is the attempt to keep the person alive. "Coding" is used as a verb either for performing "the code" or to describe a person dying.

  Thanks, that makes more sense than the other answers. Strange to use a term like that in an article that is presumably for mass consumption.

    Docility is a social network for psyicians, hardly a strange place to use medical terms.

      OK then it makes more sense. Still, if they just rephrase the references to “code” anyone will be able to read it, but perhaps that doesn’t matter.
