emergency response system, you determine there is no pulse. What is your
next action? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Start chest compressions of at least 100 per
min.

is 92/50 mm Hg, the heart rate is 92/min, the nonlabored respiratory rate is
14 breaths/min, and the pulse oximetry reading is 97%. What assessment
step is most important now? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Obtaining a 12 lead ECG.
What is the preferred method of access for epi administration during
cardiac arrest in most pts? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Peripheral IV

,You have completed 2 minutes of CPR. The ECG monitor displays the lead
II rhythm below, and the patient has no pulse. Another member of your
team resumes chest compressions, and an IV is in place. What
management step is your next priority? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Administer 1mg of
epinephrine
During a pause in CPR, you see this lead II ECG rhythm on the monitor.
The patient has no pulse. What is the next action? - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔Resume compressions
What is a common but sometimes fatal mistake in cardiac arrest
management? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Prolonged interruptions in chest
compressions.
Which action is a componant of high-quality chest comressions? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Allowing complete chest recoil
Which action increases the chance of successful conversion of ventricular
fibrillation? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Providing quality compressions immediately
before a defibrillation attempt.
Which situation BEST describes pulseless electrical activity? - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔Sinus rythm without a pulse

, What is the BEST strategy for performing high-quality CPR on a patient
with an advanced airway in place? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Provide continuous
chest compressions without pauses and 10 ventilations per minute.
Three minutes after witnessing a cardiac arrest, one member of your team
inserts an endotracheal tube while another performs continuous chest
compressions. During subsequent ventilation, you notice the presence of a
waveform on the capnography screen and a PETCO2 level of 8 mm Hg.
What is the significance of this finding? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Chest
compressions may not be effective.
The use of quantitative capnography in intubated patients - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔allows for monitoring of CPR quality.
For the past 25 minutes, an EMS crew has attempted resuscitation of a
patient who originally presented in ventricular fibrillation. After the first
shock, the ECG screen displayed asystole, which has persisted despite 2
doses of epinephrine, a fluid bolus, and high-quality CPR. What is your
next treatment? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Consider terminating resuscitive efforts
after consulting medical control.
