This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. You need to get the AED. What should you do?
After doing so - ventilate the patient at the proper volume and rate.
Turn over CPR to another rescuer. Turn on the AED.
Take BSI precautions!
1. Assess/control major bleeding (if any) 2. Assess pulse 3. Assess skin (color - temperature - and conditions) 4. Make the decision to transport patient - or not to transport the patient.
2. After you administer the medication - do you load everything up and leave - or do you stay and monitor the patient's condition/vital signs afterward?
