YMCA FIRST AID
A roofer was electrocuted when his aluminum ladder contacted an energized power
line. The scene has been made safe. An AED has been attached to the patient. The
AED has analyzed the heart and a shock is advised. You should: - ANS-clear the patient
and deliver the shock
After delivering a shock with an AED, you should: - ANS-Immediately resume CPR and
follow any instructions given by the AED.
Air blown into the stomach while giving rescue breaths: - ANS-Can limit lung movement,
cause vomiting, and reduce the effectiveness of rescue breathing.
Chest compression's during CPR should be: - ANS-Hard and fast, interrupted as little as
possible.
CPR is being performed on a child who was removed from a swimming pool. An AED
arrives and is positioned near the child's head. The next step is to: - ANS-Wipe his
chest dry before attaching the pads.
During CPR, if a child's chest does not rise with the first rescue breath you need to? -
ANS-Reposition the airway and give a second rescue breath.
During CPR, you are opening the airway of a person who you suspect has had
significant trauma to the head, neck, and back. You should: - ANS-Place your palms
and thumbs on both sides of a CPR mask, hook your fingers underneath the angles of
the jaw, and displace the jaw with your fingers, moving it upward without lifting the head.
For proper chest compression's, a patient should be positioned: - ANS-Face-up on a
firm, flat surface.
It's a hot day, and you are waiting to check out at the grocery store when the woman
standing behind you in line suddenly collapses to the floor. She is unresponsive and
doesn't seem to be breathing. You should: - ANS-Have someone activate EMS and get
an AED, if one is available, then check for a carotid pulse
Standing in line at a local government facility, a middle-aged man suddenly collapses.
The man is unresponsive and he occasionally gasps for breath. He looks dead. This
