CPR and AED Quiz

What ratio of compressions to breaths should be used for 1-rescuer infant CPR?

• Give 30 compressions to 1 breath

• Give 15 compressions to 2 breaths

• Give 30 compressions to 2 breaths

• Give 15 compressions to 1 breath

What should you do if you need to use an AED on someone who has been submerged in water?

• Do not move the person, and do not use the AED

• Do not pull the person out of the water, and wipe the chest

• Pull the person out of the water, and wipe the chest

• Pull the person out of the water, and do not wipe the chest

What actions should occur next to support a team-based resuscitation attempt?

• Two rescuers should alternate giving high-quality CPR, two should give compressions

• Two rescuers should alternate using the AED and giving breaths

• Two rescuers alternate giving CPR while the third rescuer leaves to get the AED, while another rescuer gives breaths

• Two rescuers should give CPR and a third rescuer gives breaths

What is the correct compression-to-ventilation ratio for a 2-rescuer child CPR?

• 15-2

• 30-2

• 5-1

• 20-2

You witness someone suddenly collapse. The person is unresponsive. You hear gasping sounds, and there is no pulse. What should you do next?

• Begin CPR, but phone 9-1-1, you should do that next

• Begin CPR, the gasps are not normal breathing

• Monitor the patient, the gasps are considered normal breathing

• Give rescue breathing only, the gasps are not normal breathing

What special circumstances should a rescuer consider when using an AED?

• Remove transdermal medication patch with a cloth before applying AED pads.

• Never remove AED pads.

• Only use adult AED pads on someone with an implanted pacemaker.

• Only use AED while a person is submerged in water.

What action is most likely to positively impact this survival?

• Middle-aged man collapses, you send a second rescuer to the victim and find that he is unresponsive.

• Performing high-quality CPR.

• Providing rescue breaths.

• Ensuring scene safety.

What characterizes a high-quality CPR given to a child?

• at least one third the dept of the chest, approximately 2 inches

• at least one fourth the depth of the chest, approximately 1 1/2 inches

• At least one half the depth of the chest, approximately 3 inches

• at least two thirds the depth of the chest, approximately 4 inches

Why is allowing complete chest recoil important when performing high-quality CPR?

• It will increase the rate of compressions.

• It will allow adequate filling between compressions.

• It will reduce the risk of rib fractures.

• It will prevent fatigue in the rescuer.

Use this scenario to answer the next 2 questions: A 9-year-old child has suddenly collapsed. After confirming that the scene is safe, a single rescuer determines that the child is in cardiac arrest, shouts for nearby help, and activates the emergency response system by using his mobile device. He immediately begins performing high-quality CPR. Two additional rescuers immediately arrive to assist in the resuscitation attempt. What actions should occur next to support a team-based resuscitation attempt?

• Two rescuers should operate the AED while the third rescuer gives breaths.

• One rescuer should give CPR while the other 2 wait for advanced life support to arrive.

• Two rescuers should alternate giving high-quality chest compressions alternating roles every 2 minutes or 5 cycles

• Two rescuers should alternate using the AED and giving breaths.
