breathing, no pulse victim. What action is most likely
,to positively impact his survival? -
....ANSWER...Preforming high quality cpr
You and another rescuer begin CPR. After a few
cycles, you notice the chest compression rate is
slowing. What should you say to offer constructive
feedback? - ....ANSWER..."You need to compress at a
rate of 100-120 per minute"
Early defibrillation is a link in the adult Chain of
Survival. Why is this important to survival? -
....ANSWER...It eliminates the abnormal heart rhythm
What special circumstance should a rescuer

each breath.
, When should rescuers switch positions during CPR?
- ....ANSWER...Switch rescuers about every 2
minutes

next course of action? - ....ANSWER...tell the
compressor you notice decreased chest recoil
How can rescuers ensure that they are providing

breath

chocking, the rescuer should use the heel of the
hand and forcefully deliver the slap between the
infants shoulder blades.
T or F - ....ANSWER...T. the rescuer should deliver up
to 5 back slaps forcefully between the infants
shoulder blades, using the heel of the hand,
delivering each slap with enough force to attempt to
remove the obstruction. for chocking relief in an
