> 30-day survival for out-of-hospital CPR is 10% Okay. And what is the 30-day survival for cases where CPR would be otherwise indicated but are not performed? It is a bit like complaining that jumping out of a burning airplane with a parachute is dangerous. Yes, it is. But jumping out of a parachute, or burning inside, is even more dangerous. |

Great question, but it's obviously not possible to answer.
I suspect the survival rate won't be 0, and maybe won't even be less than 10%.
The point of this whole subtree is that there are interventions that people wouldn't want for themselves because the expected outcome is very poor.
