ANSWER Systemic hypertension, unexplained agitation, seizure
What is the primary purpose of a rapid response team (RRT) or medical emergency team (MET)? -
ANSWER To improve patient outcomes by identifying and treating early clinical deterioration
What happens when teams rapidly assess and intervene when patients have abnormal vital signs? -
ANSWER The number of in-hospital cardiac- arrest decreases
In addition to decreased IHCA, what are some other benefits of implementing a rapid response system? -

another task
Which are examples of mutual respect? - ANSWER · Acknowledging correctly completed tasks in a
positive way

During CPR, chest compression fraction (CCF) should be at least --- and ideally greater than 80%. -
ANSWER 60%
How do interruptions in chest compressions negatively impact survival after cardiac arrest? - ANSWER
Decrease coronary perfusion pressure
