But the discussion is what we can do before the pros arrive, i.e., out of the hospital. As you know, we are working on a dead person. If we can provide any assistance that restores an effective heart rhythm and respiration, we have given a dead person a chance for survival. Whether that translates into true recovery is not our goal. We just want to get him to the hospital with a chance.
