Key Points

Rib fractures occurred in 67.7% of autopsy cases following CPR, indicating a high incidence of anatomical injuries.
Sternum fractures were also common, present in 57.8% of cases, with 93.3% of these patients also suffering rib fractures.
CPR duration significantly correlates with the severity of both cardiac and visceral injuries, highlighting the impact of resuscitation techniques.
Hemorrhages in cardiac structures were noted in 39.7% of cases, indicating the potential for serious internal injuries due to CPR.
