A PETCO2 (end-tidal carbon dioxide) level of 10 mm Hg during CPR is generally considered low and indicates inadequate chest compressions or poor ventilation. Effective CPR typically results in PETCO2 levels between 20-40 mm Hg, reflecting better circulation and perfusion. Therefore, a PETCO2 of 10 mm Hg suggests that the CPR being provided is not effective enough to adequately perfuse the lungs and generate sufficient carbon dioxide levels.

How effective is CPR on regular people?
Regular people as opposed to irregular people? CPR can be intrusive and offensive to those not suffereing from physical trauma. It is disruptive and ineffective to use CPR on someone who is both conscious, has pulse, and is breathing. When used on persons not breathing and or with no pulse properly, it can help save their life until medical personel arrive or at least provide the potential to save the victim's life as it prolongs the period of time the body goes without oxygen.
