ACLS FINAL EXAM A patient experiences cardiac arrest, and the resuscitation team initiates ventilations using a bag valve-mask (BVM) resuscitator. The development of which condition during the provision of care would lead the team to suspect that improper BVM technique is being used? Hypertension Esophageal injury Pneumothorax Rib fracture - CORRECT ANSWER -Pneumothorax Complications can occur with the use of a BVM resuscitator due to improper technique. Delivering excessive volume or ventilating too fast creates excessive pressure that can damage the airways, lungs and other organs. Excessive volume can lead to tension pneumothorax. A person suddenly collapses while sitting in the sunroom of a healthcare facility. A healthcare provider observes the event and hurries over to assess the situation. The healthcare provider performs which assessment first? Rapid assessment Basic life support assessment Secondary assessment Primary assessment - CORRECT ANSWER -Rapid assessment A systematic approach to assessment is necessary. The healthcare provider should first perform a rapid assessment. A rapid assessment is a visual survey to ensure safety, form an initial impression about the patient's condition (including looking for life-threatening bleeding), and determine the need for additional resources. This would be followed by a primary assessment and then a secondary assessment. A patient is receiving ventilation support via bag-valve-mask (BVM) resuscitator. Capnography is established and a blood gas is obtained to evaluate the adequacy of the ventilations. Which arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) value signifies adequate ventilations?
