[Factors which influence cardiopulmonary resuscitation and medical information preferences in a geriatric population].

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Whether or not performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a complex decision that requires taking account of several factors. The aim of this study was to analyse the preferences of elderly people with regard to CPR. SUBJECTS AND METHOD:Survey administered to 181 elderly subjects from nursing homes and ambulatory care centres. RESULTS:66.9% of them would request information if hospitalised. 80.7% would wish to undergo CPR. However, this figure decreased to 40.9% in case of serious sequeles as a result of the procedure and to 32.5% in case of previous dementia. CONCLUSIONS:Request information would be high. Age and functional status of the elderly person
