  1. NFR: no flow ratio; percentage of the of the time during resuscitation without chest compressions and spontaneous circulation.
  2. NFRadj: no flow ratio_adjusted; percentage of the of the time during resuscitation without chest compressions and spontaneous circulation adjusted by subtraction of time allowed for rhythm and pulse check and defibrillation (when appropriate).
