BLS TEST 2, 2024/2025 WITH REAL EXAM
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS (100%
CORRECT VERIFIED ANSWERS)
With 2 people providing chest compressions, each rotating every 2 minutes would be
ideal
CAB = Compression -Airway - Breath
How would you position patient to ensure an open airway? - ✔✔For maintaining an
open airway:
Head tilt and chin lift
IF there is suspected neck injury, you do NOT tilt head, you do a jaw thrust
What is the compression to ventilation ratio? - ✔✔Compression to ventilation ratio is
the number of compressions to breaths given to the patient
For Adult, compression to ventilation ratio is 30:2
For Child and Infant with 1 rescuer, compression to ventilation ratio is 30:2 BUT...
For infants and children with 2 rescuers, compression to ventilation ratio is 15:2
How often do you ventilate when an advanced airway when doing CPR? - ✔✔When
using and advanced airway, Do NOT stop compressions. As you continue your
compressions, you ventilate every 6 seconds (that's total of 10 ventilations per minute)
Also Check for rise and fall of the chest
When you receive the AED, use it immediately.
How do you properly use and AED? - ✔✔Turn on the AED, follow it's instructions.
AFTER making sure that everyone of cleared of the AED can you activate it according to
its directions.
The AED will determine if the patient needs defibrillation.
, How is the AED integrated into CPR? - ✔✔Continue chest compression as the AED is
being delivered to you.
Use it immediately
Then if the AED states that CPR needs to continue,
during the 30:2 compressions to breath, you use the AED during the "breath cycle"
Can an AED be used on a person who was submerged in water?
Can AED be used on a person lying in the snow?
How about if a patient has a hairy chest? - ✔✔Yes, a person previously submerged in
water, you wipe the water from the chest and place AED pads as usual.
Yes, you can use an AED with a person lying in the snow - clear chest as usual.
For a hair chest, you can shave it or place the pads firmly on the chest
Are different size AED pads used on adults and children? - ✔✔Yes, pediatric pads are
used on children age 8 and younger.
If no pediatric pads are available, then you can use adult pads but make sure the pads
do not touch.
You may also place one the front of the chest and one on the back.
You have a choking infant, what do you do? - ✔✔Place infant on your forearm, with
head lower than the chest and Using your palm give 5 back slaps between the scapulas
and then flip infant around and give 5 chest thrusts. Then check infant's mouth to search
for object
IF at any point, the infant becomes unresponsive, then start CPr and call 911
Infant or Child with Decreased heart rate and not breathing with heart rate less than 60
beats per minute - ✔✔Not sure of this answer:
If not breathing and pulse is less than 60 beats per minutes, start CPR
If heart rate is 60+ bpm and not breathing, rescue breaths should be 1 every 3-5 seconds
Where should you check for a pulse in adults and children?
Where should you check for a pulse in an infant? - ✔✔Checking for a pulse in adults
and children at the carotid artery
