isnt it the defi which does the kickstart while the CPR is just replacing the heart activity?
Let me explain myself a little bit better.
Whenever the heart rhythm is in a flatline or asystole condition you need to start giving CPR to get the hartrhythm in ventricular fibrillation. In this state the heart is not really doing anything useful but it has some activity for the defibs to work.
Here are some wikipedia articles that can probably explain this better than me:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_fibrillation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPR
so the thing that needs to be archieved by this ticket is basically: add a CPR feature in general (keeps away from death by flatline) and add another flag to the defibrilator (maybe with chance? please confirm) that defibrillating a person requires a CPR before to be 100% successfull?
correct me if i got something wrong
Would be nice to have CPR next to only having defibs. As in real life you would need to perform CPR first to kinda 'kickstart' the heart in order for a defib to be effective.
