Hmm, those numbers seem optimistic as well. I’ve had doctors and veterinarians tell me that survival rates with a good outcome are closer to 4%. Often they’ll be resuscitated, but succumb to their ailments shortly after. Other times they’re revived and stay alive, but suffer severe brain damage. If they survive and don’t have brain damage, they still have bruised organs and broken ribs from the procedure itself and will need further treatment. Basically everything I’ve heard about CPR from medical practitioners make it sound like an absolute last-ditch effort that rarely works.
The chances are good you’re just molesting a corpse. However, there is still the small chance you could pull off a full blown necromantic resurrection. I would take a 4% chance of raising the dead, so long as it’s safe. Even a partial success could make a big difference to someone’s life (or just their goodbye).
(My last CPR trainer was a little quirky. It sunk in well though.)
I’ve seen too many should-be-dead bodies dragged through years of medical torture after a crippling incident to be able to agree with that sentiment. There are worse things than death.

There are, but, as a layman, that is not my call to make.
