Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

Today, I want to focus on why you should never consent to a DNR or Do Not Resuscitate order. In some jurisdictions like in Australia, it’s also called an NFR, Not for Resuscitation order. At the end of the day, the meaning is the same. It means that in the event of a cardiac arrest, or if the heart stops, that intensive care teams do not resuscitate and do not start CPR. And in this quick tip video, I want to focus on why you should never give consent to that.

So when a lot of patients go in intensive care and they’re critically ill, they’re probably at their most vulnerable state in their lives ever. A lot of intensive care teams want to suggest, or even coerce families into consenting to a DNR or do not resuscitate order.

Now, what does that mean? It means that if your loved one’s heart was to stop either during cardiac arrest or any other event, they would not commence CPR and they would basically let your loved one die. And the argument of intensive care teams is often around, “oh, well, you got to crack some ribs and it wouldn’t be conducive. And even if they do survive, they won’t have any quality of life”.
