Abstract

The author offers insights on the use and necessity of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), in response to the article "Irrational Exuberance: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation as Fetish" by P. M. Rosoff and L. J. Schneiderman, published within the issue. Topics explored include the perception of healthcare providers, patients, and the media on CPR, the need to consider patient outcomes associated with the procedure, and the need to respect wishes and values of the patient before performing CPR.
