Gastric distention will MOST likely occur:
  • if you ventilate a patient too quickly
  • begin CPR until an AED is available
  • involves hands-on practice
  • a valid living will is unavailable
Signs of a sudden severe upper airway obstruction include all of the following, EXCEPT:
  • respiratory arrest
  • forceful coughing
  • gastric distention
  • remove it
Your partner is performing one-rescuer CPR on a middle-aged woman in cardiac arrest. When you apply the AED pads, you note that she has a medication patch over the same area where one of the AED pads will be placed. You should:
  • encourage the patient to cough
  • Pressure was relieved from her aorta and vena cava, which improved chest compression effectiveness
  • remove the medication patch, wipe away any medication residue, and apply the AED pads
  • limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil phase between chest compressions, which results in negative intrathoracic pressure and improved cardiac filling
The impedance threshold device (ITD) may improve circulation during active compression-decompression CPR by:
  • limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil phase between chest compressions, which results in negative intrathoracic pressure and improved cardiac filling
  • carefully perform the head tilt-chin lift maneuver
  • Pressure was relieved from her aorta and vena cava, which improved chest compression effectiveness
  • remove the medication patch, wipe away any medication residue, and apply the AED pads
If an object is visible in the unconscious patient's airway, you should __________.
  • remove it
  • respiratory arrest
  • forceful coughing
  • gastric distention
Several attempts to adequately open a trauma patient's airway with the jaw-thrust maneuver have been unsuccessful. You should:
  • if you ventilate a patient too quickly
  • forceful coughing
  • carefully perform the head tilt-chin lift maneuver
  • limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil phase between chest compressions, which results in negative intrathoracic pressure and improved cardiac filling
CPR retraining is the MOST effective when it:
  • involves hands-on practice
  • if you ventilate a patient too quickly
  • encourage the patient to cough
  • with one or two hands
When performing CPR on a child, you should compress the chest:
  • involves hands-on practice
  • deteriorate over time
  • with one or two hands
  • allow full chest recoil
In most cases, cardiopulmonary arrest in infants and children is caused by:
  • gastric distention
  • forceful coughing
  • respiratory arrest
  • deteriorate over time
CPR is in progress on a pregnant woman. Shortly after manually displacing her uterus to the left, return of spontaneous circulation occurs. Which of the following would MOST likely explain this?
  • limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil phase between chest compressions, which results in negative intrathoracic pressure and improved cardiac filling
  • carefully perform the head tilt-chin lift maneuver
  • remove the medication patch, wipe away any medication residue, and apply the AED pads
  • Pressure was relieved from her aorta and vena cava, which improved chest compression effectiveness
While rescuer one is finishing his or her fifth cycle of 30 compressions, rescuer two should:
  • encourage the patient to cough
  • carefully perform the head tilt-chin lift maneuver
  • move to the opposite side of the patient's chest
  • noninvasive emergency care that is used to treat conditions such as airway obstruction, respiratory arrest, and cardiac arrest
Basic life support (BLS) is defined as:
  • noninvasive emergency care that is used to treat conditions such as airway obstruction, respiratory arrest, and cardiac arrest
  • move to the opposite side of the patient's chest
  • if you ventilate a patient too quickly
  • limiting the amount of air that enters the lungs during the recoil phase between chest compressions, which results in negative intrathoracic pressure and improved cardiac filling
Complications associated with chest compressions include all of the following, EXCEPT:
  • respiratory arrest
  • gastric distention
  • begin CPR until an AED is available
  • forceful coughing
Without practice, your CPR skills will __________.
  • with one or two hands
  • allow full chest recoil
  • respiratory arrest
  • deteriorate over time
