Question 1: Depth of compressions in child age 1-puberty

Answer:

Press down 1/3-1/2 the depth of the chest with each compression (adult - press down 1.5-2 inches with each compression)

Question 2: The infant BLS sequence is

Answer:

ABC- Airway, Breathing, Circulation Question 3: True or False: you can use adult AED pads on a child if child pads are not available.

Answer:

True, as long as the pads can be placed without touching each other Question 4: In infants, what is the compression rate and compression: ventilation ratio?

Answer:

Compression rate of 100/min. 1 rescuer - 30:2, 2 rescuers - 15:2

Question 5: These devices are the most common method of providing positive pressure ventilation in the out-of-hospital and in-hospital settings

Answer:

Bag mask devices. Use the E-C clamp technique and deliver breaths for 1 second each.Question 6: For child age 1 to pubery, what compression rate should be used, and what

compression:breath ratio is used?

Answer:

100 compressions/minute=rate, 30compressions:2 breaths

Question 7: Unresponsive Choking Victim

Answer:

Procede with CPR Question 8: In 1-rescuer CPR, if you have already shouted for help (step 1), activated the emergency response and gotten an AED if available (step 2), and opened the victim's airway to check breathing for at least 5 seconds (step 3), what is the next step?

Answer:

• If no adequate breathing, give 2 breaths.
• Check the victim's pulse (5-10 seconds) 6. If you do not definitely feel a pulse, perform 5 cycles of

compressions and ventilations (30:2 ratio)

Question 9: Which pulse should be used to monitor an adult?

Answer:

Carotid pulse on the side closest to you Question 10: In a victim with suspected cervical spine injury use which technique for obtaining an open airway?

Answer:

Jaw thrust.Question 11: IN 2-rescuer CPR for adults and children, what is the compression:ventilation ratio?

Answer:

Adults: 30:2, Children: 15:2

Question 12: What rate of compressions should you use?

Answer:

Push hard and fast (downward 1.5-2 inches) at a rate of 100 per minute Question 13: The rescuer's exhaled air contains approximately ___ oxygen and ___ carbon dioxide.

Answer:

17%; 4% This is enough oxygen to supply the victim's needs

Question 14: ABCD

Answer:

Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Defibrillation

Question 15: When is cricoid pressure used?

Answer:

Only in unresponsive patients. It is effective for preventing gastric inflation during positive pressure ventilation.Question 16: Two Rescuers should use a compression-ventilation ratio of __ compressions to __ breaths when giving CPR to children and infants

Answer:

15 compressions to 2 breaths Question 17: For a responsive choking infant, use _____ and _____ to try to remove the airway obstruction

Answer:

• black slaps followed by 5 chest thrusts

Question 18: Responsive Choking Victim

Answer:

Procede with Heimlich maneuver

Question 19: Where should compressions be performed on infants?

Answer:

Draw an imaginatry line between the nipples. Place 2 fingers just below this line. This will allow you to compress on te lower half of the breast bone. Do not press on the xiphoid process

Question 20: If after your first 2 breaths that you give to a victim, you check the pulse (5-10 seconds) and you feel a pulse, what do you do next?

Answer:

Give 1 breath every 5-6 seconds and recheck their pulse every 2 minutes

Question 21: How much time should you take to measure a pulse?

Answer:

Take at least 5 seconds, and no more than 10. If a child's HR is less than 60 beats/min with signs of poor perfusion (eg, poor color), start CPR Question 22: Caution: Things to Avoid with Head Tilt-Chin lift

Answer:

Do not press deeply into the soft tissue under the chin b/c this may obstruct the airway, do not use thumb to lift chin, do not close victim's mouth completely (unless using mouth-to-nose breathing) Question 23: In children, you made need to try more than once to open the airway and give __ breaths

Answer:

• (in adults, you just need to try this once)

Question 24: Which is the preferred breathing technique in infants?

Answer:

Mouth-to-mouth-and-nose

Question 25: Finger sweeps in choking infants
