1. Advanced Medical Life Support (AMLS) assessment pathway - ANSWER
✔ A dependable framework to support the reduction of morbidity and
mortality by using an assessment-based approach to determine a differential
diagnosis and effectively manage a broad range of medical emergencies.
2. assessment-based patient management - ANSWER ✔ Utilizing the patient's
cardinal presentation; historical, diagnostic, and physical exam findings; and
one's own critical thinking skills as a healthcare professional to diagnose and
treat a patient.
3. Blood pressure - ANSWER ✔ the tension exerted by blood on the arterial
walls. Blood pressure is calculated using the following equation: Blood
pressure = Flow x Resistance
4. Clinical decision making - ANSWER ✔ the ability to integrate assessment
findings and test data with experience and evidence-based recommendations
to make decisions regarding the most appropriate treatment
5. Clinical reasoning - ANSWER ✔ the second conceptual component
underpinning the AMLS assessment pathway, which combines good
judgement with clinical experience to make accurate diagnoses and initiate
, proper treatment. This process assumes the provider has a strong foundation
of clinical knowledge.

distention and muffled heart tones. Vitals are P128, R26, BP 74/52. What
classification of shock should be suspected? - ANSWER ✔ Obstructive

administration of nitroglycerin. What is the most likely working diagnosis? -
ANSWER ✔ Angina pectoris
8. Healthcare providers are treating an unresponsive patient who overdosed on
lorazepam. What intervention should be initiated? - ANSWER ✔ Airway
support

elevation is present in which ECG leads? - ANSWER ✔ II, III, aVF
10.Organophosphate poisoning will present with which signs and symptoms? -
ANSWER ✔ Salivation and incontinence of urine and liquid stool
11.Patients on mechanical ventilation may have hypoxemia due to alveolar
collapse from mucous plugging. The best treatment for this is: - ANSWER
✔ Administer PEEP
12.Patients with a history of chronic bronchitis that present with shortness of
breath are likely to have which condition? - ANSWER ✔ Pulmonary
embolism

discomfort, night sweats and a persistent cough for several weeks. Which
infectious disease is most likely occurring? - ANSWER ✔ Tuberculosis

considering myocardial infarction as a working diagnosis? - ANSWER ✔
Familial heart disease history
19.What condition is most likely to cause respiratory acidosis? - ANSWER ✔
Narcotic overdose
20.What is the initial treatment for a patient experiencing Hyperosmolar
Hyperglycemic Nonketotic Syndrome (HHNS)? - ANSWER ✔ Crystalloid
IV fluid resuscitation
21.What is the most effective treatment for an unconscious patient in
respiratory acidosis? - ANSWER ✔ Assisted bag-mask ventilation
22.What is the sign on the ECG that will indicate a patient is experiencing
hyperkalemia? - ANSWER ✔ Peaked T waves
23.What medication classification should be administered to an uncooperative,
agitated patient? - ANSWER ✔ Benzodiazepine
24.A patient experiences unilateral facial weakness and droop, garbled speech,
