Does Do Not Resuscitate mean no ventilator?

A DNR (do not resuscitate) order means a person does not want CPR or other lifesaving measures in the event of a cardiac arrest. A DNI (do not intubate) order means a person does not want to be placed on a ventilator. A DNR and DNI order is a common choice for people with a terminal or life-threatening illness.

What are the different types of DNR?

Did you know that there are two different types of DNR orders that can be chosen? The first is the DNR Comfort Care (DNRCC) and the other is the DNR Comfort Care- Arrest (DNRCC-Arrest).

How do you explain DNR?

A do-not-resuscitate order, or DNR order, is a medical order written by a doctor. It instructs health care providers not to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) if a patients breathing stops or if the patients heart stops beating.

How do you explain DNR to family?

Establish the setting. Ensure comfort and privacy; sit down next to the patient. Ask if family members or others should be present. Introduce the subject with a phrase such as: Id like to talk with you about possible health care decisions in the future.

What is the difference between DNR A and DNR B?

When a patient is ill and unsure of the outcome, he or she can choose to have a DNR B and still receive treatment. If they decline and choose not to receive any further treatment, they can transition to DNR A. The plan takes away the familys fears that we have written off the patient because they have a DNR order.
