From a recent medical journal:
"Effect of Bystander CPR on Survival
Bystander CPR has repeatedly been shown to improve an individual’s odds of survival from cardiac arrest significantly. In a meta-analysis of 19 studies involving 232 703 patients, the provision of bystander CPR approximately doubles an individual’s odds of survival compared with no bystander CPR"
