一位病人有 DNR(不施行心肺復甦術)醫囑,病人發生心跳停止,護理師正確的處理方式為何?
A nurse is providing care for a client who has a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order. The client goes into cardiac arrest. What is the correct action?
- AFollow the DNR order and withhold cardiopulmonary resuscitation✓ 正解遵循 DNR 醫囑並暫停心肺復甦術
- BVerify the DNR order with the family before acting採取行動前與家屬核實 DNR 醫囑
- CProvide oxygen and medications but not compressions提供氧氣與藥物但不進行按壓
- DCall the code team immediately to initiate CPR立即呼叫急救團隊啟動心肺復甦術
DNR(Do Not Resuscitate,不施行心肺復甦術)醫囑是病人或其法定代理人基於對生命末期照護的意願,所做出的醫療決定,旨在避免在心肺停止時進行侵入性且可能徒勞的急救措施,以維護病人的尊嚴與舒適。 當病人持有 DNR 醫囑並發生心跳停止時,護理師的首要且正確的行動是遵守該醫囑。選項 A(遵循 DNR 醫囑,停止 CPR)正是體現了對病人自主權和醫療意願的尊重。這並不代表停止所有照護,而是停止特定的急救措施。 選項 D(立即呼叫 Code Team)直接違反了 DNR 醫囑。選項 B(與家屬核實 DNR 醫囑)在病人已明確持有書面 DNR 醫囑的情況下,通常不需要再次核實,除非醫囑的有效性或病人狀態有疑慮。若醫囑清晰且有效,則應立即執行。選項 C(僅提供氧氣和藥物,不進行按壓)這種「選擇性」的 CPR 是不符合標準的 DNR 執行原則,DNR 意味著不進行 CPR 相關的所有侵入性急救措施。
When a client with a valid Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order experiences cardiac arrest, the nurse must withhold cardiopulmonary resuscitation and other invasive life-saving measures. This action respects the client's autonomy and legal medical directives, ensuring care aligns with their end-of-life wishes while maintaining comfort.
