Early in the book, the twin meanings of the title become clear:
(Why anyone would do that, becomes clear as the novel continues).
Along with doing CPR to restore a beating heart, ambos (who we learn must never be called 'ambulance drivers' because they are much more than that) apply pressure to various parts of the body, but they are also subject to intense pressure themselves.
This is the blurb:
The novel is episodic, alternating Joel and Tash's experiences (supplemented by narratives from some of the other ambos), from the early days filled with hope and fear, over twenty years to trauma, disillusionment and determination to carry on.
