Decisions Relating to Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation A Joint Statement from the British Medical Association, the Resuscitation Council (UK) and the Royal College of Nursing February 2001 All establishments that face decisions about attempting resuscitation should have in place local policies for decision making. The purpose of these guidelines is to outline legal and ethical standards for planning patient care and decision making in relation to cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The focus of the guidelines is situations in which decisions are made in advance and form part of the patient’s care plan. Emergency situations where no advance decision has been made are also covered. Contents Introduction 1. The goal of medicine 2. Presumption in favour of attempting resuscitation 3. Essential aspects of decision making ... Issues for consideration Introduction Why policies are needed Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can be attempted on any person whose cardiac or respiratory functions cease. Failure of these functions is part of dying and thus CPR can theoretically be attempted on every individual prior to death. But because for every person there comes a time when death is inevitable, it is essential to identify patients for whom cardiopulmonary arrest represents a terminal event in their illness and in whom attempted CPR is inappropriate. It is also essential to identify those patients who do not want CPR to be attempted and who competently refuse it.

@import url(../../styles.css); Resources Fact Sheets Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Many people find it difficult to consider even the possibility of witnessing a sudden death. Few know what to do if such a situation occurs. Lives are lost daily nationwide from incidents involving heart attack, drowning, choking or electric shock. The steps taken to aid the victim seconds following such an incident can mean the difference between life and death. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the best training to have to try to help someone in an extreme situation when that person has stopped breathing and their circulation has stopped. Learning this basic first-aid technique can help you give a friend, a loved one or a stranger a second chance for life. The heart and lungs work together to circulate oxygen throughout your body. If your brain is deprived of oxygen more than four minutes, there's a good chance you'll suffer brain damage. After 10 minutes, your chances of surviving drop to one in 100. The CPR method taught is a three-step process which is as simple as ABC . The rescuer must first establish an open Airway before determining if the victim can breathe or before breathing for him. If the victim is not breathing, the rescuer must start rescue

Index Illustration Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) What is CPR? CPR stands for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Cardio refers to the heart. Pulmonary refers to the lungs. CPR is a way to give oxygen and keep the heart pumping when it has stopped beating. It is an emergency procedure that can save the life of someone whose heart has stopped beating and who is not breathing. When is it used? Almost 75% of cardiac arrests occur in the home. When someone has a cardiac arrest, the heart stops beating. When this happens, someone should call 911 and then the victim should be given CPR until he or she starts breathing or emergency medical help arrives. If CPR is not done, the person can have brain damage or die in 5 to 10 minutes. What happens during CPR?
