摘要
In 2006, Massachusetts General Hospital adopted a policy to support doctors who had judged that CPR would not benefit a patient in their care and wanted a DNR order in place, even in the face of objections from the surrogate decision-maker. Although some surrogates ended up accepting the DNR order, others continued to resist. Here's what MGH learned about them.
