BYSTANDER CPR - Abstract
The authors discuss bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), in response to the article "Irrational Exuberance: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation as Fetish" by P. M. Rosoff and L. J. Schneiderman, published within the issue. Topics explored include the use of CPR to improve outcomes of individuals suffering from cardiac arrest, the civic duty of a bystander to deliver emergency medical care, and the importance of CPR training for populations such as public safety personnel and teachers.
