Yes, CPR started within 4 - 6 minutes after a heart attack when no signs of life are present will give the person a good chance of survival. As time goes beyond 6 minutes, chances of survival decrease about 10% per minute.

Yes, someone can certainly survive cardiac arrest. Various factors increase a person's chance of survivability following cardiac arrest, such as early intervention, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

I think the words "cardiac arrest" (which means the heart has stopped) give you the answer - death is certain.

Is cardiac arrest painful?

No, because cardiac arrest is when the heart stops; so this means if someone goes into cardiac arrest, he/she will die (unless he/she is saved by medical care/help). You probably mean heart attack. The answer to your question (presuming you mean heart attack) is: Yes. The areas that are painful include: Chest (severe pain), left arm and jaw (note: not all these areas may be in pain during a heart attack). The difference between Heart Attack and Cardiac Arrest: Heart Attack: Occurs when there is a blockage in the coronary (main) arteries of the heart. Cardiac Arrest: Is when the heart stops suddenly.
