This is a great question. Unless the form specifically allows for "partial DNR" then a full DNR includes DNI when the patient has cardiac or respiratory arrest. The question is more complicated when the patient is not a cardiac or respiratory arrest and the doctor wants to intubate. Then the question is really why isn't that doctor getting prior consent. A DNI presumes the right to act without consent (like CPR) In every other invasive treatment or procedure, informed consent is required beforehand so should it be with intubation (unless the patient is in cardiac/respiratory arrest). Doctors seem to use the "emergency exception" to the informed consent rule for emergency intubation (if we don't intubate the patient will go into respiratory arrest) But that may be inconsistent with the patients real spirit of the patient's DNR so in those circumstances, I think the doctor should really be getting the patient's next of kin (or medical POA) to consent or refuse consent (consistent with the DNR).
The adjective form is patient.
The adjective form is patient.
Patience does not have a verb form, but you can describe a person as being patient, or waiting patiently, or as having a lot of patience.
As with any surgical procedure, the patient will be required to sign a consent form after the procedure is explained thoroughly.

Of course you can refuse. You can also refuse the biopsy of any polyps removed. If you're ever in a situation where a colonoscopy is being thrust upon you unwillingly, then just keep your legs crossed and by all avoid the fetal position.
This would be called implied consent. It is contrasted with the legally required informed consent.

Expressed consent; The patient has the procedure explained to them, understands and agrees to it.Implied consent; The patient is unable to communicate their consent, but life-saving interventions are required. For instance, someone who has suffered a heart attack and is unconscious is legally offering implied consent for CPR to be performed on them.Third-party consent; The patient is mentally incapable of understanding the procedure and/or the ramifications of consent or refusal, so consent is given or withheld on their behalf by a legal designate, eg a parent or guardian in the case of children, or a power of attorney delegated by a person suffering a degenerative neural disease.
A client consent form is a document that a patient signs before surgery or treatment of an illness. It basically says that the patient is away of problems that might happen and they agree to let the doctor do the surgery or treatment.
no, verbal consent is sufficient, also if you have gone to the surgery to receive the immunisation you are implying that you are consenting to it.
Yes, verbal consent is generally permitted for less invasive procedures or treatments where the risks are minimal and the patient is able to provide informed consent verbally. However, for more complex procedures or treatments with higher risks, written consent may be required to ensure that the patient fully understands the risks and benefits involved.
Nothing. The patient that is under going the surgery has to sign a waiver/consent form, stating that he/she knows that there is a possibility of death.
