What is the correct order of steps in the in-hospital chain of survival for adults? -✔✔1.- Early
recognition and prevention
2.- Activation of emergency response
3.- High quality CPR
4.- Defibrillation
5.- Post-cardiac arrest care
6.- Recovery
What are the components of a pulse check? -✔✔-Use 2-3 fingers to locate the pulse
-Feel the pulse in the groove to the side of the trachea
-Assess for a pulse for at least 5 but no more than 10 seconds
Critical components of chest compressions: Adults -✔✔Rate: 100 to 120/min
Depth: at least 2 inches (5cm)
Hand placement: 2 hands on the lower half of the breastbone
Chest recoil: allow complete recoil, do not lean on the chest
Minimizing interruptions: limit interruptions to less than 10sec
What does a chest compression feedback device monitor? -✔✔-chest recoil
-compression depth
-compression rate
when using a pocket mask, where should the rescuer be positioned? -✔✔At the side of the victim
, After positioning yourself directly above the victim's head, what is the correct order of steps for using a
bag-mask device? -✔✔1.- Place the mask on the victim's face, using the bridge of the nose as a guide
for the correct position.
2.- Use the E-C clamp technique to hold the mask in place while you lift the jaw to hold the airway open.
3.- Squeeze the bag to give breaths (1sec each) while watching for chest rise.
What are the correct actions to take for Scene Safety and Assessment -✔✔-Verify scene safety
-Activate the emergency response system and get an AED
-Check for responsiveness
-Look for no breathing and only gasping and check pulse
How do you open the airway for breaths if a single rescuer is present? -✔✔Head tilt-chin lift
Why is an AED needed? -✔✔To analyze the heart rhythm and provide shock
How breaths deliver a bag-mask device? -✔✔1 breath over 1 second, while watching for chest rise.
When should the rescuer operating the AED clear the victim? -✔✔During analysis and before shock
What is the correct chest compression rates for adults? -✔✔100 to 120 per minute
After an AED delivers a shock, what should the rescuers do next? -✔✔Resume CPR, starting with chest
compressions.
Where should AED pads be placed in the anteroposterior placement for adults and children 8years old
and older? -✔✔-Left side of the chest
-Left side of the back
