Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
CPR is done to revive a stopped heart back to normal rhythm. We can not guarantee whether the revived heart function normally or whether it’s a transient reversal. Continue supportive care and at any time he will go for another arrest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
