OCE.14:5.3 - Protective action before causal attribution

A hospital’s qualified safety owner supplies a current requirement to pause one organization-flow trial under a stated patient-protection condition. The available waiting-time comparison has changed case mix and cannot attribute an overall effect.

OCE.14 can carry the actual authorized pause and its organization scope while preserving the unresolved causal question. It cannot alter clinical treatment, statutory responsibilities or protection requirements by preference. A favorable median waiting time supplies no missing authority to continue.
