1 The primary goal of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is to optimize coronary perfusion pressure and maintain systemic perfusion in order to prevent neurologic and other end-organ damage while working to achieve ROSC. Interventions during the acute phase of treatment post return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) are therefore critical.
