1. 10 seconds A 6 month old infant is unresponsive. You begin checking for breathing
at the same time you check for the infants pulse. Which is the
maximum time you should spend when trying to simultaneously check
for breathing and palpate the infants pulse before starting CPR?
2. Disordered A 4 year old child is brought to the emergency department for
Con- trol of
seizures. The seizures stopped a few minutes ago, but the child
Breathing
continues to have slow and irregular respirations. Which condition is
most consistent with your assessment?
3. blood glucose An 8 year old child is brought to the emergency department with a 2
day history of lethargy and polyuria. The child has new onset rapid,
deep, and labored breathing. Which diagnostic test should you order
first?
4. Reposition After rectal administration of diazepam, an 8 year old boy with a history of
the patient, seizures is no unresponsive to painful stimuli. His respirations are

oxygen. On examination, the child is snoring with poor chest rise and

the patient continues to deteriorate. What next step is the most
appropriate?
