No. The physician will be running a standard ER code protocol, following a memorized flow chart.
Judgement is always part of the process, but yeah running a routine code is pretty easy to train for. It's one of the easiest procedures in medicine. There are a small number of things that can go wrong that cause quick death, and for each a small number of ways to fix them. You can learn all that in a 150 hour EMT class.
