I like something more along the lines of "Trust the judgement and expertise of medical professionals, especially in emergency situations."

Vs a procedure that has a 10% success rate but 95% of people who survived had complete brain functionality restored. Personally I'd want to take the 1/10 chance, but I'm sure there are a lot of people who would want to live even if it meant diminished mental capacity.
