‘Do not resuscitate’ (DNR) imprints on the human body have recently appeared in medical practice. These non-standard DNR orders (e.g., tattoos, stamps, patches) convey the patient’s refusal of resuscitation efforts should he be incapable of doing so. The article focuses on such innovative tools to express one’s end-of-life wishes. Switzerland provides a unique example, as ‘No Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation’ stamps and patches have been commercialised. The article discusses the challenging legal questions as to the validity of non-standard DNR orders imprinted on the human body. It analyses the obligation of healthcare providers to honour such orders, either as an advance directive or an expression of an individual’s presumed wishes, and withhold treatment. Finally, the article addresses the balancing of interests between the presumed wishes of an unconscious patient and his best interests of being resuscitated and potentially staying alive, a dilemma facing healthcare providers in a medical emergency.

最近在医学实践中，在人体上留下了“请勿复苏”（DNR）印记。这些非标准的DNR命令（例如纹身，邮票，贴片）表明患者如果无法这样做，则表示拒绝进行复苏。本文重点介绍了表达生命终结愿望的创新工具。瑞士提供了一个独特的例子，因为“无心肺复苏”邮票和贴片已经商业化。本文讨论了有关非标准DNR有效性的具有挑战性的法律问题订单印在人体上。它分析了医疗服务提供者履行这些命令的义务，这些命令既可以作为预先指示，也可以表达个人的预期愿望，并保留治疗。最后，本文讨论了失去知觉的患者的预期愿望与他的复苏和可能存活的最大利益之间的利益平衡，这是医疗急救人员面临的难题。
