Choices
- EMTs should wear high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) respirators when they are
in contact with patients who have which of the following?
a. HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) or AIDS (acquired immune deficiency
syndrome)
b. tuberculosis (TB)
c. open wounds
d. hepatitis B
[Correct Ans: – b. HEPA respirators are worn when in contact with patients who have
airborne infections such as TB. HIV/AIDS and hepatitis B are both blood-borne
pathogens. Contaminants from open wounds would also be blood borne - You are called to assist a 60-year-old female who complains of a severe headache.
Upon entering the home, you smell a strong odor of natural gas. What is your first
action?
a. Check the patient’s airway, breathing, and circulation.
b. Insert a nasopharyngeal airway and assess vital signs.
c. Remove the patient from the house to your ambulance.
d. Open all windows and determine the source of the gas leak.
[Correct Ans: – c. Your first action should be to remove your crew and the patient
from the possible noxious gas and to notify the gas company of the leak. You may
also be required to alert the hazardous-materials response team. You should not
attempt to locate the gas leak yourself. Treatment for the patient will begin with an
ABC assessment and management of any problems you might encounter - The most common electrical rhythm disturbance that results in sudden cardiac
arrest is called
a. pulseless electrical activity.
b. ventricular fibrillation.
c. ventricular tachycardia.
d. asystole
[Correct Ans: – b. Because ventricular fibrillation is the most common cause of
sudden cardiac arrest, it is critical to apply an AED on an unconscious apneic and
pulseless patient as quickly as possible. The other rhythms can also cause a patient
to be in cardiac arrest, but they do not occur as frequently as “V-fib.”

- Which of the following is the highest priority patient?
a. 57-year-old male with chest pain and systolic blood pressure of 80
b. 40-year-old female with moderate pain from a leg injury
c. 75-year-old male who appears confused but responds to commands
d. 25-year-old female in labor with contractions six minutes apart
[Correct Ans: – a. The patient with chest pain and systolic blood pressure less than
100 is the highest priority patient of the four. A leg injury may be life threatening if
the femoral artery is injured, but most often, a single extremity injury is not a
threat to life. The elderly gentleman may be exhibiting his normal mental status, or
he may be having problems due to an ongoing health problem. You need more
information before you can make that determination, but he is not in any imminent
danger right now. with contractions six minutes apart is not considered imminent
delivery. If you have any questions, however, you should continue assessing this
patient as well by asking pertinent questions and checking for crowning - Of the following, which body fluid has the most potential to transmit bloodborne diseases?
a. nasal discharge
b. vomitus
c. amniotic fluid
d. feces
[Correct Ans: – c. Fluids containing blood have the highest potential for disease
transmission. - Your patient is an 11-month-old female. How can you determine if she has a
decreased mental status and is responsive to verbal stimuli?
a. She will be upset when you take her from her mother’s arms.
b. She will be unable to tell you how old she is if you ask her.
c. She will attempt to locate her parents’ voices when they speak.
d. She will try to pull away from a painful stimulus on her toe.
[Correct Ans: – c. An infant who is alert to verbal stimuli will still try to locate the
parents’ voices; choice a describes an alert infant; choice d describes an infant who
is responsive to painful stimuli; choice b is incorrect because infants of this age are
not developed enough to tell you their age regardless of their mental status. - What is the best method to assess circulation in an infant?

4
a. Palpate the carotid pulse.
b. Palpate the brachial pulse.
c. Palpate the radial pulse.
d. Observe capillary refill time.
[Correct Ans: – b. Assess circulation in an infant by palpating the brachial pulse in
the upper arm. The carotid and radial pulses are difficult to locate in infants.
Capillary refill time shows that the patient has impaired circulation, but it is not the
first tool to use in assessing circulation because it is affected by external factors
(like the environment) as well as internal factors like poor perfusion.
- A 45-year-old male is experiencing chest discomfort. After placing him in his
position of comfort, your next action should be to
a. ventilate the patient with a nonrebreather mask at 15 L/min.
b. ventilate the patient with the bag-valve mask at 15 L/min.
c. administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 15 L/min.
d. administer oxygen by the nasal cannula at 6 L/min.
[Correct Ans: – c. There is no information to indicate that the patient requires
ventilatory support. Any patient experiencing chest discomfort should receive the
highest possible concentration of oxygen. - Which patient should receive a rapid trauma survey to determine hidden injuries?
a. alert 2-year-old child in a car seat who was in a medium-speed crash
b. alert 20-year-old male who fell ten feet and is complaining of leg pain
c. alert 65-year-old female who fell in the bathtub and is complaining of wrist pain
d. alert 11-year-old female who tripped while roller-skating and fell down three
steps
[Correct Ans: – a. The rapid trauma survey is used when you are unsure of the
presence of hidden injuries or if the mechanism of injury (MOI) is unclear or severe
enough to suggest the need for a rapid assessment. A 2-year-old child could be
severely injured by a medium-speed collision, even if he or she appears alert and
was properly restrained. The other choices do not represent MOIs considered to be
high risk for hidden injury. - Which of the following is a sign of increased pressure in the circulatory system?
a. flat neck veins
b. palpable carotid pulse
