At risk of putting the cat among the pigeons, I'd probably send him home with the message that I was disappointed that he didn't take the job serious enough to better manage his "Partying spirit". However, is he more of a liability than a Nurse or Intern who has been on duty for over 24 hours straight?
WOuld you follow th 50:1 CPR if it were to come into effect?

Similar changes are being considered in Australia by our Resuscitation Council. At first glance I was skeptical, but on examination it makes sense. Insufficient perfusion is in large part responsible for many bad outcomes from CPR. Given that a small amount of air is exchanged by the actions of the compressions I can see how the rate of full respirations could be reduced to allow for better perfusion. Yes, I would follow the new protocol with a clear conscience.
