While performing high-quality CPR on an adult, what action should you ensure is being accomplished?
  • Observing the chest rise with breaths.
  • Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches.
  • Each time you open the airway, look for the obstructing object
  • Alternating the compressor role every 2 minutes
When the AED arrives, what is the first step for using it?
  • Follow the AED prompts.
  • Performing high-quality CPR
  • Switch rescuers about every 2 minutes
  • Turn on the AED.
Members of the team know their boundaries and ask for help before the resuscitation attempt worsens. Match this statement with the most appropriate element of team dynamics listed.
  • Knowing your limitations
  • You need to compress at a rate of 100 to 120 per minute
  • Follow the AED prompts.
  • Clear roles and responsibilities
Why is defibrillation important?
  • Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches.
  • It eliminates the abnormal heart rhythm
  • Switch rescuers about every 2 minutes
  • It can restore a regular cardiac rhythm
Why is allowing complete chest recoil important when performing high-quality CPR?
  • 2 rescuers alternate giving high-quality chest compressions
  • Perform CPR, and look in the mouth for the obstructing object
  • The heart will adequately refill between compressions.
  • Pull the victim out of the water, and wipe the chest.
Which action is most likely to positively impact this victim's survival?
  • Perform CPR, and look in the mouth for the obstructing object
  • 30 compressions to 2 breaths
  • Performing high-quality CPR
  • 2 rescuers alternate giving high-quality chest compressions
A victim with a foreign-body airway obstruction becomes unresponsive. What is your first course of action?
  • Alternating the compressor role every 2 minutes
  • Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches.
  • Start CPR, beginning with chest compressions
  • Begin CPR; the gasps are not normal breathing
Rapid defibrillation is a link in the adult Chain of Survival. Why is this important to survival?
  • Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches.
  • It eliminates the abnormal heart rhythm
  • Observing the chest rise with breaths.
  • It can restore a regular cardiac rhythm
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?
  • Give sets of 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts
  • Begin CPR; the gasps are not normal breathing
  • The heart will adequately refill between compressions.
  • You need to compress at a rate of 100 to 120 per minute
Which victim requires high-quality CPR?
  • Tell the compressor you notice decreased chest recoil
  • A victim who is unresponsive with no normal breathing and no pulse
  • Perform CPR, and look in the mouth for the obstructing object
  • On a hairy chest, the pads may not stick and may fail to deliver a shock
After the AED pads are attached to the victim's bare chest, the AED detects ventricular fibrillation. What is the next step?
  • Turn on the AED.
  • Knowing your limitations
  • Follow the AED prompts.
  • 30 compressions to 2 breaths
What actions should occur next, to support a team-based resuscitation attempt?
  • The heart will adequately refill between compressions.
  • 2 rescuers alternate giving high-quality chest compressions
  • Pull the victim out of the water, and wipe the chest.
  • Perform CPR, and look in the mouth for the obstructing object
What ratio for compressions to breaths should be used for 1-rescuer infant CPR?
  • Performing high-quality CPR
  • 30 compressions to 2 breaths
  • By compressing the chest at least one third the depth of the chest, about 2 inches (5 cm)
  • 2 rescuers alternate giving high-quality chest compressions
The team functions smoothly when all team members know their positions, functions, and tasks during a resuscitation attempt. Match this statement with the most appropriate element of team dynamics listed.
  • Clear roles and responsibilities
  • Knowing your limitations
  • Follow the AED prompts.
  • Alternating the compressor role every 2 minutes
You witness someone suddenly collapse. The person is unresponsive, you hear gasping sounds, and there is no pulse. What should you do next?
  • Start CPR, beginning with chest compressions
  • Give sets of 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts
  • Begin CPR; the gasps are not normal breathing
  • Alternating the compressor role every 2 minutes
How can rescuers ensure that they are providing effective breaths when using a bag-mask device?
  • Alternating the compressor role every 2 minutes
  • It eliminates the abnormal heart rhythm
  • Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches.
  • Observing the chest rise with breaths.
What is a consideration when you are using an AED?
  • The heart will adequately refill between compressions.
  • On a hairy chest, the pads may not stick and may fail to deliver a shock
  • Switch rescuers about every 2 minutes
  • 2 rescuers alternate giving high-quality chest compressions
You have determined that the infant is responsive and choking with a severe airway obstruction. How do you relieve the airway obstruction?
  • Compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches.
  • Begin CPR; the gasps are not normal breathing
  • Give sets of 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts
  • You need to compress at a rate of 100 to 120 per minute
