- W2069645072 abstract "Decisions about whether to attempt cardiopulmonaryresuscitation (CPR) on an individual patient in a hospitalor other health care setting often raise ethical dilemmasfor members of the health care team. They are also of vitalinterest to many patients, and their relatives, who entrustthemselves to the care of health professionals when theyare admitted to hospital. There can be few more emotivescenarios than that of the patient ‘brought back to life’following a cardiac arrest by the prompt and expert effortsof the crash team, or alternatively of the patient who isdenied a similar chance of survival because of her age ordisability (as has been alleged is sometimes the case in UKhospitals). Of course the question of whether to attemptCPR is not as straightforward as these scenarios suggest.The success rate is low, even in the best circumstances,and there is a possibility of significant harm to thepatient. The age and existing medical condition of thepatient may alter both the likelihood of success and therisk of harm. The phrase ‘medically futile’ has been usedto justify the decision to make a Do Not AttemptResuscitation (DNAR) order, as well as to argue for notdiscussing the decision with the patient.1,2 What are theethical considerations that should inform DNAR decisionsand is the concept of medical futility helpful inreaching an ethically justifiable decision?" @default.
