ot esuscitate. A formal legal order signed by the patient or responsible party and/or their physician instructing hospital and other medical personnel not to perform certain life-saving procedures.

Ideally, ambulance crews should not have to deal with a DNR at the scene of an emergency call, but families of DNR patients tend to call 9-1-1 when the patient dies. DNR laws have been vague in their wording and some changes can be expected as medical and legal personnel gain more experience in their application. These laws vary from state to state and from county to county.
