For which of the following would it be appropriate to move an adult victim who
might need CPR?
When help is more than 15 minutes away from the scene
To locate the AED when one is not available
When the adult victim is in a dangerous environment
As soon as the adult is found to be in arrest - ANSWERWhen the adult victim is in a
dangerous environment
Several colleagues are nearby. After determining that the scene is safe, you assess
the victim for responsiveness and breathing. There is no response when you gently
tap and speak to the victim. You note that he is not breathing. The next thing you
need to do is
A. begin chest compressions.
B. check for a carotid pulse.
C. open his airway using the head tilt-chin lift technique.
D. send someone to activate the emergency response system and get the AED. -
ANSWERD
Which of the following victims needs CPR?
A. A victim with a pulse who is having trouble breathing
B. A victim with chest pain and indigestion
C. A victim who is unresponsive with no breathing (or no normal breathing) and no
pulse
D. A victim who is unresponsive but is breathing adequately - ANSWERC
After you send someone to activate the emergency response system and get an AED,
you and 2 other colleagues lower the victim gently to the floor. You would then
A. begin chest compressions.
B. check for a pulse.
C. open his airway and assess for adequate breathing.
D. provide 2 breaths (1 second each) using a face mask with a 1-way valve. -
ANSWERB
The proper location to check for a pulse in an adult victim is at the
A. brachial artery of the arm.
B. femoral artery of the leg.
C. carotid artery of the neck. - ANSWERC
The victim has no pulse. You begin CPR at a compression rate of
, A. 80 to 100 per minute and a compressions-to-breaths ratio of 30:1.
B. 80 to 100 per minute and a compressions-to-breaths ratio of 15:2.
C. 100 per minute and a compressions-to-breaths ratio of 5:1.
D. at least 100 per minute and a compressions-to-breaths ratio of 30:2. - ANSWERD
The recommended depth of chest compressions for an adult victim is at least
1 inch (2.5 cm).
2 inches (5 cm).
3 inches (7.5 cm).
4 inches (10 cm). - ANSWERB.
Why is it important to compress to the appropriate depth during CPR?
A. Adequate depth of compression is needed to create blood flow during
compressions.
B. Adequate depth of compression is needed to create air flow into the lungs and
adequate oxygenation.
C. Adequate depth of compression is needed to prolong asystole.
D. Adequate depth of compression is needed to stimulate spontaneous respirations.
- ANSWERA.
Complete chest recoil contributes to CPR success by
A. reducing the fatigue of the rescuer.
B. allowing the heart to refill with blood between compressions.
C. reducing the risk of rib fractures.
D. increasing the rate of chest compressions. - ANSWERB
While you provide compressions and count aloud, a colleague is giving breaths. To
open the airway for this victim, your colleague will use the
A. jaw thrust technique.
B. head tilt-chin lift technique. - ANSWERB
o reduce rescuer fatigue during team CPR, compressor roles should be switched
about every
1 cycle.
3 cycles.
5 cycles.
8 cycles. - ANSWERC
You and several colleagues are with an adult male victim who collapsed while
entering the hospital. He is unresponsive, is not breathing, and has no pulse. You and
a colleague perform 2-rescuer CPR until another colleague arrives with an AED. She
kneels at the victim's side, places the AED next to the victim, and opens the case.
What should she do next?
A. Place the AED pads on the chest
B. Clear the patient
C. Turn on the AED
D. Press the analyze button. - ANSWERC
