If proper CPR involves compressing the chest so much such that the ribcage might break - doesnt that breakage risks a bone puncturing the heart?

    External compression isn’t exactly the normal mechanism of blood circulation.

      That’s true, my point was just that a broken rib doesn’t mean you made a mistake during CPR.
