Will you resuscitate an unconscious patient with a “DO NOT RESUSCITATE” tattoo on his chest? Why?

Yes basicly maybe he changed him mind after tattoed

That’s a conundrum. The patient may think of it as a permanent DNR order. We don’t know if they have changed their mind unless they tattooed “void” over it. Ultimately though yes, unless you’re in a clinical setting and they have an official DNR on record.

yes we resuscitate because tatto is no legal document and stands ineligible to be followed
