A small child fell through ice when skating. After 20 minutes, the child is
pulled out of the water apneic and pulseless. What is your first action?
(A) keep the child cool to maintain the mammalian dive reflex.
(B) defibrillate the child immediately.
(C) pronounce the child dead at the scene.
(D) secure the child's airway and control the cervical spine. - ✔✔✔
Correct Answer > (D) secure the child's airway and control the
cervical spine
Since it is unknown if there are any c-spine injuries from the fall
through the ice, you must secure the airway and control the cervical
spine during resuscitation.
What happens during inspiration?
,(A) the diaphragm contracts and the intercostal muscles relax.
(B) the diaphragm relaxes and the intercostal muscles contract.
(C) the diaphragm relaxes and the intercostal muscles relax.
(D) the diaphragm contracts and the intercostal muscles contract. -
✔✔✔ Correct Answer > (D) the diaphragm contracts and the
intercostal muscles contract.
What are the three parameters of the pediatric assessment triangle?
(A) airway, breathing, circulation.
(B) appearance, breathing, circulation.
(C) airway, respiratory rate, pulses.
(D) appearance, lung sounds, skin color. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > (B)
appearance, breathing, circulation.
The pediatric assessment triangle is based on appearance, which
includes mental status and muscle tone; breathing, which includes
visible movement, effort, and audible sounds; and circulation, which
includes skin color. All are obtained as part of the initial assessment to
formulate a rapid determination of the child's stability.
A high-pitched noise associated with upper airway constriction is
known as
, (A) wheezes.
(B) rhonchi.
(C) stridor.
(D) rales. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > (C) Stridor
Stridor is defined as a high-pitched sound associated caused by
obstruction in the trachea or larynx.
During your assessment, you find crepitus and instability to the right rib
cage. Lung sounds are equal but there is paradoxical chest movement.
You suspect:
(A) a tension pneumothorax.
(B) a massive hemothorax.
(C) a flail chest.
(D) an abdominal aneurysm. - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > (C) a flail chest
Flail chest is defined as three or more adjacent ribs that are fractured
in two or more places. This segment of the chest is free to move with
the pressure changes of respirations.
Which statement correctly relates to pediatric seizures?
