Assessment of Knowledge, Attitudes, and Willingness Among People With and Without Heart Disease Relatives in Saudi Arabia Regarding Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Background Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving procedure that can be performed in many situations where a person's breathing or heartbeat has stopped, such as during a heart attack, suffocation, near drowning, or electrical injuries.
