An improved emergency code cart (100) is provided. The cart contains a number of drawers (130), each containing medications (305, 310) and instruments (315) required for a particular code algorithm. The contents of each drawer are organized according to ACLS (American Cardiac Life Support) or other guidelines. The cart also contains a computer (175) which is programmed with ACLS algorithms or other guidelines which are the current standard of emergency patient care. The cart's computer monitors the patient's EKG, blood pressure, pulse oximetry, and other indicators, providing diagnostic information to the medical personnel in the code team. Upon select of a code algorithm, the computer provides prompts according to the algorithm, issues alarms when the algorithm is not followed, provides automatic synchronized cardioversion, prints an EKG rhythm strip, and documents all activities occurring in a code, including withdrawal, replacement, and use of medication and instruments.
