I had to help give CPR to someone recently, and their eyes were partly open. Got me wondering whether they were partly conscious while I was doing compressions.

If someone needs CPR, they’re dead and you’re trying to bring them back to life. They weren’t conscious and won’t remember receiving CPR.

This is the correct answer.

I've seen/performed CPR on hundreds of people. The vast majority of cases, this is the case.
