The purpose of this study was to examine the understanding of contents and the convenience of use of the DNR animation mobile electronic informed consent. The subjects in this study were inpatients of long-term care hospital. As for data analysis, a statistical package SPSS 21.0K was employed. The findings of the study were as follows: First, DNR choice was 33.0%, CPR choice was 54.0% in case of the outbreak of cardiac arrest. Their principal diagnosis made statistically significant differences to their choice of DNR and CPR. Second, they got 2.50 in the understanding of the content of the DNR electronic informed consent, and got 2.37 in the convenience of use.
