A patient was admitted several weeks ago with an acute myocardial infarction and subsequently underwent coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Since a cardiac arrest 5 days ago, the patient has been unresponsive. An electroencephalogram shows no meaningful brain activity. After a family conference, the physician orders a do-not-resuscitate (DNR) order, and palliative care is begun. How does this affect the patient’s treatment? Question 5 options: The patient will continue to receive the same aggressive treatment short of resuscitation if he has another cardiac arrest. The patient will be immediately transferred to hospice. All attempts will be made to keep the patient comfortable without prolonging his life. All treatment will be stopped, and the patient will be allowed to die.
