Pulmonary complications, ventilation and blood gases after upper abdominal surgery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has the potential to save many lives. Used indiscriminately though, it may be harmful and not in the best interest of the patient. An advance directive to refrain from resuscitation in selected patients is probably not uncommon in Sweden, but guidelines ruling this are sti...
