Code Blue

If it can be treated one second earlier, the heart might start beating again.
If there is one extra helicopter, another life in danger may be saved.
If one more life can be saved, the Japanese medical community may regain trust.
There are more lives in this country that can be saved.

The "Doctor Helicopter" system was legalized in Japan in June 2007. A medical team is dispatched to the patients on a helicopter to provide medical care in the field as soon as possible. One day, four young physicians are assigned to this latest medical system. The doctors experience traumatic medical situations, deal with personal ambitions, witness the fragility of life, and they grow personally and professionally.


11 episodes; medical drama

Code Blue, just another medical drama. Pretty good I suppose with exposure to the medical world. Deals with all the hospital traumas, such as the impossible people; dealing with deaths. The story is about four very different interns. One with the brains and the coolness to be able to deal with patients in a way that has no emotion attached to it. Another one is an extremely nice girl that can't help but be kind. One is a funny guy that is a bit lacking in the brains and doesn't really have a chance to do much about the helicopter thing. The other girl is one of those confident ones. Well, each episodes, there are new patients, new emergencies, and new problems that spring up for the four interns. Considering all medical dramas are the same, there really isn't much to say, although, I am very glad that this drama was able to focus on the medical part. No romantic parts at all in this drama.

In conclusion, I consider this drama very well made and would give it a 4/5.
