EXPERT VERIFIED /ALREADY GRADED A+|| LATEST
EXAM!!!
1. You find an unresponsive patient who is not breathing.
After activating the emergency response system, you
determine that there is no pulse. What is your next action?
Open the airway with a head tilt-chin lift.
Administer epinephrine at a dose of 1 mg/kg.
Deliver 2 rescue breaths each over 1 second.
Start chest compressions at a rate of at least 100/min. -
Answer-Start chest compressions at a rate of at least
100/min.
2. You are evaluating a 58-year-old man with chest pain.
The blood pressure 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?

PETCO2
Chest x-ray
Laboratory testing
Obtaining a 12-lead ECG - Answer-Obtaining a 12-lead
ECG
3. What is the preferred method of access for epinephrine
administration during cardiac arrest in most patients?
Intraosseous
Endotracheal
Central intravenous
Peripheral intravenous - Answer-Peripheral intravenous
4. An activated AED does not promptly analyze the
rhythm. What is your next action?
Begin chest compressions.
Discontinue the resuscitation attempt.
Check all AED connections and reanalyze.

Rotate AED electrodes to an alternate position. - Answer-
Begin chest compressions.
5. 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?
Give 0.5 mg of atropine.
Insert an advanced airway.
Administer 1 mg of epinephrine.
Administer a dopamine infusion. - Answer-Administer 1 mg
of epinephrine.
6. 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?
Establish vascular access.
Obtain the patient's history.
Resume chest compressions.
, 4|Page
Terminate the resuscitative effort. - Answer-Resume chest
compressions.
7. What is a common but sometimes fatal mistake in
cardiac arrest management?
Failure to obtain vascular access
Prolonged periods of no ventilations
Failure to perform endotracheal intubation
Prolonged interruptions in chest compressions - Answer-
Prolonged interruptions in chest compressions
8. Which action is a component of high-quality chest
compressions?
Allowing complete chest recoil
Chest compressions without ventilation
60 to 100 compressions per minute with a 15:2 ratio
Uninterrupted compressions at a depth of 11⁄2 inches -
Answer-Allowing complete chest recoil
