The correct answer is shaking him and shouting, "Are you okay?" Checking the victim for responsiveness involves trying to wake them up and assess if they are conscious or unconscious. Shaking the person gently and speaking loudly to them helps determine if they are responsive or not. Using smelling salts or pouring cold water on their face are not recommended methods for checking responsiveness.Rate this question:

To check if the victim is breathing, you should:
- A.
Listen for exhaled air.
- B.
Watch for his chest to rise and fall.
- C.
Feel for exhaled air.
- D.
All of the above.
Correct Answer
B. Watch for his chest to rise and fall.Explanation
The correct answer is "Watch for his chest to rise and fall." This is because observing the victim's chest movement is a reliable indicator of breathing. If the chest rises and falls regularly, it indicates that the person is breathing. Listening for exhaled air or feeling for exhaled air are not as effective as visually monitoring the chest movement.Rate this question:

The technique used to clear the victim's airway is:
- A.
Lift chin up, tilt head back.
- B.
Push chin down, tilt head forward.
- C.

- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
A. Lift chin up, tilt head back.Explanation
The correct technique to clear the victim's airway is to lift the chin up and tilt the head back. This helps to open up the airway and allow for better airflow. By lifting the chin, any obstructions or blockages in the throat can be cleared, and tilting the head back helps to align the airway for easier breathing. This technique is commonly used in first aid situations to ensure that the victim's airway is clear and they can breathe properly.Rate this question:

When assisting the victim with breathing, it is important to pinch the victim's nose closed to ensure that air does not escape through the nostrils. Over-inflating the victim's lungs can cause damage, so it is crucial to avoid doing so. Additionally, allowing the victim to exhale on their own helps to maintain a natural breathing rhythm. Therefore, all of the given options are correct when assisting the victim with breathing.Rate this question:

None of the above.
Correct Answer
A. Dial 9-1-1 before starting CPR.Explanation
In case of an unresponsive victim, it is important to call for emergency medical help immediately by dialing 9-1-1. This ensures that professional medical assistance is on the way as soon as possible. Starting CPR should be the next step after calling for help, as it is crucial to begin life-saving measures promptly. Waiting to see if the victim regains consciousness can waste valuable time and delay potentially life-saving interventions. Therefore, the correct course of action is to dial 9-1-1 before starting CPR.Rate this question:

The most common airway obstruction is:
- A.
Dentures
- B.
Food
- C.
The tongue
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
C. The tongueExplanation
The tongue is the most common airway obstruction because it can fall back and block the airway during unconsciousness or when the muscles relax. This can happen during sleep, anesthesia, or in cases of drug overdose. It is important to recognize and address this obstruction promptly to ensure proper airflow and prevent complications such as hypoxia or asphyxiation. Dentures and food can also cause airway obstruction, but they are not as common as the tongue.Rate this question:

Check for circulation by feeling for pulse at the:
- A.
Jugular Vein
- B.
Heart
- C.
Carotid Artery
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Carotid ArteryExplanation
The carotid artery is the correct answer because it is one of the main arteries that supplies blood to the head and neck. It is located in the neck, and feeling for a pulse in this artery can indicate whether there is circulation happening. The jugular vein is a vein, not an artery, and feeling for a pulse there would not be an accurate way to check for circulation. The heart is also not a suitable location to check for circulation by feeling for a pulse, as it is an internal organ.Rate this question:

The correct answer is "All of the above." This means that when administering chest compressions, you should position your hands on the sternum, give 2 breaths after 30 compressions, and apply the "2 hands, 2 inches" rule. All of these actions are important and recommended during chest compressions to ensure effective and proper resuscitation.Rate this question:
