bolus, and high quality CPR. What is your next treatment? - ANSWER-
Consider terminating resuscitive efforts after consulting medical control.

calling for help and determining that the pt. is not breathing, you are
unsure whether the pt. has a pulse. What is your next action? - ANSWER-
Begin chest compressions.


What is an advantage of using hands-free d-fib pads instead of d-fib
paddles? - ANSWER-Hands-free allows for more rapid d-fib.


What action is recommended to help minimize interruptions in chest
compressions during CPR? - ANSWER-Continue CPR while charging the
defibrillator.


Foundational Facts: Resume CPR While Manual Defibrillator is Charging


Which action is included in the BLS survey? - ANSWER-Early defibrillation

, Which drug and dose are recommended for the management of a pt. in
refractory V-FIB? - ANSWER-Amiodarone 300mg




You find an unresponsive pt. who is not breathing. After activating the
emergency response system, you determine there is no pulse. What is
your next action? - ANSWER-Start chest compressions of at least 100 per
min.


You are evaluating a 58 year old man with chest pain. The BP is 92/50
and a heart rate of 92/min, non-labored respiratory rate is 14
breaths/min and the pulse O2 is 97%. What assessment step is most
important now? - ANSWER-Obtaining a 12 lead ECG.


Identification of Chest Discomfort Suggestive of Ischemia


What is the preferred method of access for epi administration during
cardiac arrest in most pts? - ANSWER-Peripheral IV
