it said it was appallingly low. i dont know what it actually is, but of course, not as effective as the teevee shows wd have u think.
but when it works, it’s a miracle.

at my nephew’s wedding, many yrs ago, the bride’s uncle collapsed on the dance floor. 1 of the other guests was a cardiologist. he jumped right in, took too long for the emt’s to get there. guy had over 20 min of cpr. fully recovered like this guy.
