A. Body Temperature, Pulse, Blood Pressure & RespiratoryExplanation
The four vital signs are important indicators of a person's overall health and well-being. Body temperature is a measure of the body's internal heat, pulse refers to the heart rate, blood pressure measures the force of blood against the walls of the arteries, and respiratory rate measures the number of breaths taken per minute. Monitoring these vital signs can provide valuable information about a person's physical condition and help identify any potential health issues.Rate this question:

Washing hands helps to remove any potential pathogens on the hands, wearing an apron protects the healthcare professional's clothing from any potential blood splatters or spills, and wearing gloves prevents direct contact with the patient's blood, reducing the risk of transmission of any bloodborne pathogens. These precautions ensure the safety of both the healthcare professional and the patient.Rate this question:

Chest compressions are performed to maintain blood circulation, and defibrillation (not mentioned in the question) may be used to restore the heart's normal rhythm. The other options listed (Kiss of Life & Hug, Scream, Shout & Whisper, Cry, Smile & Frown) do not accurately describe the correct CPR procedure.Rate this question:
