According to Red Cross, all patients in cardiac arrest may receive resuscitation unless (1) the patient has a valid "Do Not Attempt Resucitation" (DNAR) order, (2) the patient has signs of irreversible death such as rigor mortis, decapitation, or dependent lividity and (3) if there is no physiological benefit that can be expected because the vital functions have deteriorated despite maximal therapy for such conditions as progressive septic or cardiogenic shock. A patient with a fractured rib may also be contraindicated for CPR to avoid puncturing of vital organs by the fractured rib.
