CPR is performed for three reasons:
1. To give the patient a chance of survival
2. The patient may be an organ donor and CPR is used to keep the organs Oxygenated
3. Practice - you may not resuscitate the patient but the next time you need to perform CPR you will be a little more experienced.
The rescuer should only stop CPR if one of three things happen:
1. The patient is resuscitated
2. Advanced Life Support takes over
3. When the rescuer is physically exhausted.
