Yeah clearly if he can speak he can make his lungs inhale and exhale air which is all you need to do CPR

The fact that he doesn't extract oxygen from the air would if anything make him more effective at doing CPR

There's actually a gag on Order of the Stick where a vampire character normally speaks "by magic" with a black speech bubble

And in order to pretend to be alive he decides to fake breathing and speaking normally

But lack of practice being undead means his intentional breathing comes off as "HEEEEE-HOOOAAAH HEEE-HOAAAH"

We don't think about the mechanics of breathing much (obviously) so no one thinks through how it works for vampires to "not breathe"

It's like the question of whether your should suppress the breaths in your speech if you're voice acting a computer or robot

She takes a deep breath before speaking as a social signal and he's all "Why did you go" *deep breath* "like that when you have no lungs"

"Because... breathing is part of human language -- " "But you're not human! It's an affectation!"
