Guidelines for the appropriate use of do-not-resuscitate orders. Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs, American Medical Association.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is usually performed on inpatients with cardiac arrest or respiratory arrest. Patients can not express their treatment options at the time of arrest and it is presumed that they will agree to administer CPR as it will certainly cause death of the patient if not acting immediately. However, two exceptions to the assumption of supporting CPR are recognized. First, the patient can prescribe his preferences in advance, that is, hold CPR. If the patient is unable to express preferences, it can make decisions of the patient's family or other attorney decision maker to abandon recovery. Secondly, at the discretion of the treating doctor, if the attempt to resuscitate the patient is wasted, the CPR may be rejected. In December 1987, the American Medical Association's Ethics and Judiciary Committee published a series of guidelines to help hospital medical staff formulate appropriate recovery policies. This report will update the Board's view on proper use of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and irreparable order.
