EMD 350 FINAL Test Questions and Correct
Solutions
human resources, medical direction and clinical care
the EMS agenda for the future included 14 focus areas. which were part of the EMS agenda for
the future
rapid extraction
which of the following is an example of a medical innovation developed during WW1
funding for EMS system development
what did the emergency medical services act of 1973 provide
no
is it true that EMT basics need 750-1500 hours of training and can perform intravenous IV
access, advanced airway and administer meds
quicker evacuation of injured individuals from the battlefield and application of medical
science to their care
what were the two key factors that contributed to increased survival following injury between
WW1 and WW2
accidental death and disability, the neglected disease of modern society
Following the Vietnam war many soldiers returned to the U.S. and noted "survival following
injury on the battlefield was more likely than when injured in most major cities." This
observation was highlighted in the landmark paper titled:
,there is a sudden loss of heart function when the hearts electrical system malfunctions
cardiac arrest occurs when
sudden loss os responsiveness, no response when tapping on shoulders asking if they are ok,
absence of normal breathing
signs of cardiac arrest include
early chest compression
research shows that the following intervention saves lives:
out of hospital
EMS agenda for the future provides a vision for ______ EMS including education issues
4 person crew
when EMS professionals are providing CPR the ideal crew configuration is:
120-130 hour course
training for an EMT consists of: a _______
chain of survival
_____: early recognition of the emergency and activation of the EMS, early defibrillation when
indicated and early bystander CPR, early advanced life support followed by pos resuscitation
care delivered by healthcare providers
AED's are immediately available
, Reversing cardiac arrest due to an abnormal hearth rhythm called ventricular fibrillation is more
likely to occur if you're in and airport, a casino and hospital because:
tactical medics
EMS providers who work with SWAT teams are called
lightning strike
resuscitation attempts should NOT be withheld in the cases of?
a longer downtime is accepted for initiation of resuscitation
when considering pediatric out of hospital cardiac arrests: ______
witnessing of arrest/time/ end tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2). not used is medical history
what is used to guide decisions for termination of resuscitation? _______. what is not used
______?
hypothermia
which of the following may be favorable regarding the survival of a patient in cardiac arrest
administered at a rate of 110 cpm or in cycles of 200
chest compressions should be:
hemorrhage and epinephrine
which of the following interventions does not match its appropriate disease
ventricular fibrillation after a second shock, hyperkalemia, opiate OD
