Comment: "Many thanks. Although your answer sounds like it is correct, unfortunately I have received three different answers.
Perhaps you would be good enough to tell me how to translate D.N.R. I assume it will simply be the letters of the alphabet.
The shorter the answer the better, once it is clear to a doctor that the patient does not want to be decussated after heart failure.
Thanks again.

蘇生処置停止
This word is applied to Euthanasia。However, you need to be sensitive when you translate. In the countries where doctors can decide a particular patient should pass away without further treatment, it may be OK to translate as 蘇生停止拒否。However, in most countries, 蘇生処置拒否 makes us feel something like a murder by physician.
'do not resuscitate' is referred to the patients' refusal rights for further treatments.
Only the patient self and/or his/her family who hold the decision authority can implement.
蘇生させてはならない is too direct and machine type translation.
