from the child's parent or legal guardian if they are present regardless of the
child's level of consciousness. True or false? - True
A 4-year-old child is in respiratory failure. Her central pulse rate is 65 bpm. Which
of the following actions are appropriate? - Deliver 1 ventilation every 2 to 3
seconds
Check the pulse and breathing about every 2 minutes
respiratory failure - The reduction of breathing to the point where oxygen intake
is not sufficient to support life
respiratory arrest - when breathing completely stops
You are caring for a child who is in respiratory arrest with a central pulse of 55
bpm and signs of poor perfusion. What should you do? -
perfusion - inadequate circulation of blood through organs and tissues manifested
by vital sign abnormalities and/or signs and symptoms of organ dysfunction
, You and another provider are performing CPR on a 6-month old infant. The
provider performing chest compressions would use which technique? - Encircling
thumbs technique
Advanced airway - Prevent airway obstruction and can provide a route for more
effective oxygenation and ventilation
supraglottic airway, laryngeal mask airway, or endotracheal tube
When providing CPR to a child or infant with an advanced airway in place, one
provider should deliver 1 ventilation every 2 to 3 seconds, while the other
provider delivers continuous chest compressions without pausing for ventilations.
True or false? - true
What two things = respiratory arrest - A child or infant is in respiratory arrest if
they are not breathing and have a central pulse. True or False
What two things = respiratory failure - They are in respiratory failure if they have
ineffective ventilation and a central pulse.
For children and infants, If their central pulse is > 60 bpm, - deliver 1 ventilation
every 2 to 3 seconds
If an advanced airway is in place, the rate remains the same.
Signs of poor perfusion in a child or infant include - cool, moist skin; pallor,
mottling or cyanosis; a weak or thready pulse; decrease in behavior or reactivity;
decreased capillary refill; and hypotension.
