I had to help give CPR to someone recently, and their eyes were partly open. Got me wondering whether they were partly conscious while I was doing compressions.

    Does it count if it was received when it wasn’t needed and just part of the CPR training class? For some reason this one CPR training session I had for some damn thing (I’ve done a few of these because of boy scouts and jobs I’ve had) didn’t have the dummies, so we had to practice on each other.

    It was weird. I really would only want someone doing it when it’s absolutely necessary.

      This is dangerous in two ways. 1: teaches people not to use enough force. 2: if they do use enough force, you get broken ribs without need.
