ACLS PRACTICE EXAM 2025 UPDATE QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
VERIFIED ANSWERS ALREADY GRADED A+ (BRAND NEW VISION)
Using distinctive speech and a controlled voice - ANSWER > Confirming task completion before
assigning another task
Which are examples of mutual respect? Select all that apply:
Acknowledging correctly completed task in a positive way
Requesting a clear response and eye contact from the team member
Giving drugs only after verbally confirming the order
Ensuring that only 1 person talks at a time - ANSWER > Acknowledging correctly completed
tasks in a positive way
Ensuring that only one person talks at a time
What are the components of high quality CPR? Select all that apply:
Synchronous ventilation with chest compressions
Avoiding excessive ventilation
Compression rate around 10/min
Complete chest recoil after each compression
Interruptions limited to less than or equal to 10 seconds
Low coronary perfusion pressure
Switching compressors every 2 minutes
Compression depth of at least 2 inches (5cm) - ANSWER > Compression depth of at least 2
inches (5cm)
Switching compressors every 2 minutes
,Avoiding excessive ventilation
Complete chest recoil after each compression
Interruption limited to under 10 seconds
How do you calculate the chest compression fraction (CCF)? What is ideal percentage? -
ANSWER > Divide chest compression time by total code time. You want this at least 60% but
ideally greater than 80%
Which component of effective high-performance teams is represented by the use of real-time
feedback devices?
Quality
Administration
Timing
Coordination - ANSWER > Quality
How do you calculate Coronary Perfusion Pressure (CPP)? - ANSWER > Aortic diastolic pressure
"minus" Right Atrial Diastolic Pressure
How do interruptions in chest compressions negatively impact survival after cardiac arrest?
Increase intracranial pressure
Decrease coronary perfusion pressure
Reduce right ventricular period
Increase intrathoracic pressure - ANSWER > Decrease coronary perfusion pressure
, What is the only intervention that can restore an organized rhythm in patients with ventricular
fibrillation (VF)?
High-quality CPR
Epinephrine administration
Early and effective defibrillation
Advanced airway insertion - ANSWER > Early and effective defibrillation
How quickly does the chance of survival decline for every minute of defibrillation delay in
patients with ventricular fibrillation who do receive bystander CPR?
3-4%
5-6%
11-13%
7-10% - ANSWER > 7-10%
What is the advantage of a systematic approach to patient assessment?
Reduces the need for secondary assessment
Reduces the chance of missing important signs and symptoms
Permits assessment modification based on patient symptoms
Standardizes treatment across systems of care - ANSWER > Reduces the chances of missing
important signs and symptoms
What is the first step in the systematic approach to patient assessment?
BLS assessment
