A victim with a foreign body airway obstruction becomes
unresponsive. What is your first course of action?
Start CPR beginning with chest compressions
When performing CPR on an unresponsive choking victim, what
modification should you incorporate?
Each time you open the airway, look for the obstructing object
An infant is responsive and choking with a severe airway
obstruction. How do you relieve the airway obstruction?
Give 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts
Which action would you perform to relieve choking in an
unresponsive infant?
Perform CPR and look in the mouth for obstructing object
After the AED pads are attached to the victim's chest, the AED
detects ventricular fibrillation. What is the next step when using an
AED?
Follow the AED prompts
What ratio for compressions to breaths should be used for 1-rescuer
infant CPR? 2-rescuer CPR?
30:2 and 15:2
In a team CPR approach, knowing your boundaries and asking for
help before a resuscitation attempt worsens is an example of
knowing and understanding your limitations.
What are demonstrated when all team members know their
positions, functions, and tasks during a resuscitation attempt?
,Clear roles and responsibilities
When an AED arrives, what is the first step?
Turn it on
What should you do if you need to use an AED on a wet victim? What
are other considerations when you use an AED?
Dry them off first then apply the pads; if hairy, shave the hair to get
them to stick
2-Rescuers begin CPR and the 3rd leaves to get an AED. When do
the 2-rescuers switch roles?
Every two minutes or 5 cycles
Why is defibrillation important?
To restore a normal cardiac rhythm

cm's)?
2 inches, 5 cm
You see your friend, Annie, collapse. Annie is unresponsive and
gasping but does not have a pulse. What should you do?
Start CPR
Why is it important to allow the chest to recoil between
compressions?
So the heart will adequately refill between compressions
What is the correct chain of survival for an adult?
recognition & activation, CPR, defibrillation, advanced life support &
post-cardiac arrest care
How does the chain of survival differ from adult to child?
prevention, CPR, activation, advanced life support, post-cardiac arrest
care
, You and a classmate are performing CPR. Your classmate's
compression rate is slowing down. What should you do?
Tell them to compress at a rate of 100-120
Your classmate is not allowing for complete chest recoil. What
should you do?
Tell them you notice a decreased chest recoil
While performing high-quality CPR on an adult, what action should
you ensure is being accomplished
Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches
When the AED arrives, what is the fist step for using it?
Turn it ON!
After the AED pads are attached to the victim's bare chest, the AED
detects ventricular fibrillation. What is the next step when using the
AED?
Follow the Prompts
What should you do if you need to use and AED on someone who
has been submerged in water?
Pull the victim out of the water and wipe of the chest
How can rescuers ensure that they are providing effective breaths
when using a bag-mask device?
Observing the Chest Rise with breaths
What ratio for compressions to breaths should be use for 1-resuer
infant CPR
30 compressions to 2 breaths
What is a consideration when you are using an AED?
