Synchronized cardioversion is appropriate for treating an unknown
wide complex tachycardia. - --RIGHT ANS--True

The aorta is the wall that separates the ventricles of the heart. - --RIGHT
ANS-- False

The most effective treatment for ventricular fibrillation is defibrillation. - --
RIGHT ANS--True

An individual should be cleared-Ñ prior to a shock only when convenient. -
--RIGHT ANS-- False

PEA and asystole are considered non-shockable rhythms and follow the same
ACLS algorithm. - --RIGHT ANS--True

Transcutaneous pacing should be used on an individual with bradycardia
and inadequate perfusion if atropine is ineffective and the individual is
exhibiting severe symptoms. - --RIGHT ANS--True

Low blood pressure may be an indication of hemodynamic instability. -
--RIGHT ANS--True

Urgent defibrillation is essential for survival in the management of
acute strokes. - --RIGHT ANS--False

Fibrinolytic therapy within three hours (in some cases 4.5 hours) of
first onset of symptoms is the standard when treating ischemic stroke.
- --RIGHT ANS--True

periods of time. - --RIGHT ANS--True

In a suspected acute stroke individual, you must always immediately obtain
IV access. - --RIGHT ANS--False

,There is never a pulse associated with VF; therefore, you should follow
the PEA algorithm with individuals in VF. - --RIGHT ANS--False

If the AED advises no shock, you should still defibrillate because defibrillation
often restarts the heart with no pulse. - --RIGHT ANS--False

If transcutaneous pacing fails, there are no other options to consider. -
--RIGHT ANS--False

, Medication is the only treatment for an unstable tachycardic individual. -
--RIGHT ANS-- False
