When someone either fails to breathe drowns or heart beats stops one of the ways that you can try and bring them back to a state of consciousness is through administration of CRP.

What is the appropriate method for opening the airway of a patient with no suspected trauma who is unconscious?
- A.
E-C
- B.
Head Tilt/Chin Lift
- C.
Jaw Thrust
- D.
Can Opener
- E.
Sniffing Position
Correct Answer
B. Head Tilt/Chin LiftExplanation
The appropriate method for opening the airway of an unconscious patient with no suspected trauma is the Head Tilt/Chin Lift technique. This method involves tilting the patient's head back while lifting their chin forward, which helps to open up the airway by straightening the passage between the mouth and the lungs. This allows for better airflow and facilitates the patient's breathing. The Jaw Thrust technique is typically used for patients with suspected trauma to avoid further injury to the neck and spine. The Can Opener and Sniffing Position are not recognized methods for opening the airway.Rate this question:

Compressions should be at a rate of _____ per minute
- A.
60
- B.
80
- C.
90
- D.
100
- E.
120
Correct Answer
D. 100Explanation
The correct answer is 100 because compressions should be performed at a rate of 100 compressions per minute during CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation). This rate ensures that the chest is compressed at an adequate speed to effectively circulate blood and oxygen to the body's vital organs.Rate this question:

The maximum acceptable amount of time to have the hands off the chest for ventilation or pulse check should be?
- A.
15 seconds
- B.
12 seconds
- C.
30 seconds
- D.
2 seconds
- E.
10 seconds
Correct Answer
E. 10 secondsExplanation
The maximum acceptable amount of time to have the hands off the chest for ventilation or pulse check should be 10 seconds. This time limit is crucial in order to minimize interruptions in chest compressions during CPR. Any longer delay in providing compressions can lead to decreased blood flow and lower chances of successful resuscitation. Therefore, it is important to quickly assess for breathing and pulse, and then promptly resume chest compressions if needed.Rate this question:

Pediatric AED pads can be used on an adult. (True or False)
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
Pediatric AED pads are specifically designed for children and have lower energy levels compared to adult AED pads. Using pediatric AED pads on an adult may not deliver enough energy to effectively restore the heart's normal rhythm during a cardiac arrest. It is important to use the appropriate size and type of AED pads for the age and size of the patient to ensure the best chance of successful defibrillation. Therefore, the statement that pediatric AED pads can be used on an adult is false.Rate this question:

The correct sequence for using an AED is to first turn on the AED, then apply the pads to the patient's chest, clear the patient to ensure no one is touching them, and then administer the shock if advised by the AED. This sequence ensures that the AED is properly functioning, the pads are correctly placed, the patient is safe from any interference, and the shock is delivered effectively.Rate this question:
