Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency procedure used during cardiac or respiratory arrest that involves chest compressions, often combined with artificial ventilation, to preserve brain function and maintain circulation until spontaneous breathing and heartbeat can be restored. It is recommended for those who are unresponsive with no breathing or abnormal breathing, for example, agonal respirations.
Research suggests both men and women are more reluctant to give CPR to women. Reasons cited include more concern about injuring the woman and concern about a false allegation of sexual assault.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
