vehicle accident. Following insertion of a supraglottic tic airway
airway, you note diminished breath sounds on the
right. What should you do?

b. assess for a cardiac tamponade
c. assess for a pneumothorax
d. withdraw the supraglottic airway
2. A 19 year old female was a restrained passenger in a b. place an occlusive
car crash. She has a laceration to her head, bubbling dressing to the chest
from an upper chest wound, an abrasion to the ab-
domen, and a deformed arm. What should you do?
a. splint the arm with a board splint
b. place an occlusive dressing to the chest
c. apply a hemostatic agent to the head
d. place a trauma dressing on the abdomen
3. An 18 year old male was kicked in the left side of his A. zygomatic
face. He tells you that he cannot look up or feel his
cheek, nose or upper lip. Which type of fracture should
you suspect?
a. zygomatic
b. mandibular
c. maxillary
d. orbital
4. A 23 year old male fell from the top of a two story b. apply a tourniquet
building breaking his femur. There is bright red blood above the wound
spurting from the wound. What should you do?
, Trauma Fisdap AEMT
a. establish intravascular access
b. apply a tourniquet above the wound
c. splint his left with a traction splint
d. initiate immediate transport
5. What sound would you expect to hear during chest A. hyperresonance
percussion on a patient with a suspected pneumoth-
orax?
a. hyperresonance
b. dull
c. normal
d. hyporesonance
6. A 26 year old male has been stabbed in the left side C. cardiac tamponade
of his chest. He presents with pale, cool skin and JVD.
Vital signs are a BP 140/120, P 140, R 32 breath sounds
equal bilateral. What should you suspect?
a. hemopneumothorax
b. cardiac contusion
c. cardiac tamponade
d. tension pneumothorax
7. What is the most appropriate treatment for a sucking A. apply an occlusive
chest wound? dressing
a. apply an occlusive dressing
b. assist ventilations with bag-valve mask
c. tape a saline bag over the wound
d. apply a bulky dressing to the wound
, Trauma Fisdap AEMT
8. A 50 year old male has a long piece of wood impaled in b. initiate rapid transport
his left anterior chest and protrudes out his back. He
is pale and diaphoretic with a weak radial pulse. What
should you do?
a. establish vascular access
b. initiate rapid transport
c. cut down the piece of wood
d. provide high-flow oxygen
9. A patient was attacked by a large animal. He is in a. apply occlusive dressing
severe respiratory distress. He has a large avulsion on
his thigh and several puncture wounds on his chest.
What should you do?
a. apply occlusive dressings to the chest wounds
b. assess his vital signs and package the patient
c. administer high concentration oxygen via nasal can-
nula
d. control external bleeding with tourniquets
10. A 35 year old patient is unresponsive after a motor a. assist the patient's ven-
vehicle collision. You observe paradoxical movement tilations
during respiration. Vital signs are BP 104/72, P 120, R
32 and shallow and SpO2 89%. What should you do?
a. assist the patient's ventilations
b. stabilize the flail segment with a bulky dressing
c. administer oxygen via nonrebreather mask
d. position the patient on their effected side
11. A 19 year old female was hit in her left flank with a C. spleen injury
baseball bat. She has bruising to her left upper quad-
