Ratio of two rescuer CPR on a pediatric patient - ✔✔15:2
Transient Ischemic Attack timeframe - ✔✔If longer than 15 minutes treat as stroke, with further
diagnostics, 24 hours of symptoms can still be considered a TIA
3 basic causes of shock - ✔✔poor pump function, fluid loss, vessel dilation
How much blood can be lost in a healthy adult without symptoms - ✔✔500ml
How should you suction an infants airway - ✔✔mouth before nose
Thyroid cartilage - ✔✔Adam's apple
Cardiac tamponade - ✔✔pressure on the heart caused by fluid in the pericardial space
tension pneumothorax - ✔✔air in the pleural space; involved lung collapsed
hemothorax - ✔✔blood in the pleural space
right ventricular failure - ✔✔blood backs up in the vena cava causing systemic or generalized edema
left ventricular failure - ✔✔blood backs up into the lungs causing pulmonary edema
pulmonary edema and primary symptom - ✔✔fluid accumulation in the lungs, difficulty breathing when
lying down
, CHF definition - ✔✔blood backs up when coming back to the heart, causes congestion in veins of the
body, can cause pulmonary edema
Heart failure affects the kidneys; how does that lead to more swelling? - ✔✔difficulty disposing of
sodium and water. Increased blood volume and water retention cause additional swelling
Who has jurisdiction over radio transmissions? - ✔✔FCC (Federal Communications Commission)
Vena Cava - ✔✔A large vein that carries blood to the heart from other areas of the body.
Paradoxical pressure - ✔✔Blood pressure decreases with inhalation
What frequently causes paradoxical pressure - ✔✔Cardiac tamponade
Epiglottis - ✔✔Cartilage that seals off the windpipe when swallowing
Right failure often happens as a result of - ✔✔Left heart failure
Why does left heart failure cause right heart failure - ✔✔When the left ventricle fails causing increased
fluid pressure in the lungs (pulmonary edema), the heart's right side is damaged and loses power to
pump blood
Rule of 9's - ✔✔Used to evaluate burn percentages
Whole head (ADULT) - ✔✔9%
Whole head (CHILD) - ✔✔18%
