Decision fatigue is real. Them more decisions we make, the worse the quality.
In medicine, each patient has hundreds of decisions about their care that need to be made every day. Expert clinicians focus on the few decisions that are crucial for that patient, and try to delegate other decision.
A great example in the ICU: the method by which potassium is routinely replaced (oral vs. IV) is much less important than a crucial decision to extubate vs. tracheostomize a patient.
Save your mental energy for the tough decisions that really move the needle.
