Question 1: If an object is visible in the unconscious patient's
airway, you should __________.
A. continue chest compressions
B. leave it in place
C. remove it
D. place the patient on his or her side
Answer:
C. remove it
Question 2: In most cases, cardiopulmonary arrest in infants and
children is caused by:
A. respiratory arrest.
B. a cardiac dysrhythmia.
C. a drug overdose.
D. severe chest trauma.
Answer:
A. respiratory arrest.
Question 3: Several attempts to adequately open a trauma patient's
airway with the jaw-thrust maneuver have been unsuccessful. You
should:
A. tilt the head back while lifting up on the patient's neck.
, B. carefully perform the head tilt-chin lift maneuver.
C. suction the airway and reattempt the jaw-thrust maneuver.
D. try opening the airway by lifting up on the chin.
Answer:
B. carefully perform the head tilt-chin lift maneuver.
Question 4: Signs of a sudden severe upper airway obstruction
include all of the following, EXCEPT:
A. forceful coughing.
B. grasping the throat.
C. acute cyanosis.
D. inability to speak.
Answer:
A. forceful coughing.
Question 5: The impedance threshold device (ITD) may improve
circulation during active compression-decompression CPR by:
A. maximizing the amount of air in the lungs following chest recoil,
which hyperinflates the lungs and forces more blood from the
ventricle during each compression.
B. drawing all of the air out of the lungs in between chest
compressions, which causes positive intrathoracic pressure and a
reduction of blood return to the right side of the heart.
C. maintaining increased intrathoracic pressure during the downward
stroke of each chest compression, which forces more blood from both
of the ventricles.
D. limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil
phase between chest compressions, which results in negative
intrathoracic pressure and improved cardiac filling.
,Answer:
D. limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil phase
between chest compressions, which results in negative intrathoracic
pressure and improved cardiac filling.
Question 6: What is the correct compression-to-ventilation ratio for
adult CPR?
A. 30:2
B. 30:1
C. 3:2
D. 5:1
Answer:
A. 30:2
Question 7: When performing CPR on a child, you should
compress the chest:
A. until a radial pulse is felt.
B. to a depth of 1 to 2 inches.
C. 80 to 100 times per minute.
D. with one or two hands.
Answer:
D. with one or two hands
Question 8: While rescuer one is finishing his or her fifth cycle of
30 compressions, rescuer two should:
A. assess for a carotid pulse for 15 seconds.
B. give two breaths and prepare to start compressions.
, C. move to the opposite side of the patient's chest.
D. suction the patient's mouth and give two more ventilations.
Answer:
C. move to the opposite side of the patient's chest.
Question 9: Without practice, your CPR skills will __________.
Select one:
A. improve over time
B. deteriorate over time
C. become part of your muscle memory
D. come back automatically when needed
Answer:
B. deteriorate over time
Question 10: Your conscious patient has a mild partial airway
obstruction. You should:
A. encourage the patient to cough.
B. administer back blows.
C. perform abdominal thrusts.
D. place the patient supine.
Answer:
A. encourage the patient to cough.
Question 11: Your partner is performing one-rescuer CPR on a
middle-aged woman in cardiac arrest. When you apply the AED
pads, you note that she has a medication patch over the same area
where one of the AED pads will be placed. You should:
