Surviving Without CPR

It is important to understand that survival without CPR is possible and can occur in some cases. In most cases, CPR is necessary to keep the heart functioning and to keep oxygen circulating throughout the body. However, if the person is in cardiac arrest, the heart may not be able to maintain circulation without CPR.

Surviving With CPR

When CPR is administered, it is important to note that survival rates vary depending on the person's age, health, and other factors. Generally, it is estimated that one to three minutes of CPR will be necessary to maintain circulation until medical help arrives. However, in some cases, CPR may be able to save a person's life for up to 10 minutes.

Long-Term Survival With CPR

Surviving long-term after CPR is possible, but it is important to note that there are risks associated with this type of medical emergency. People who survive long-term after CPR may experience reduced mobility, organ damage, and other health issues.

Conclusion

CPR can be an effective means of keeping a person alive until medical help arrives. How long a person can survive with CPR depends on their age, health, and other factors. Generally, one to three minutes of CPR is necessary to maintain circulation until medical help arrives, but in some cases, CPR may be able to save a person's life for up to 10 minutes.
