take a moment and think about the answer and i'm going to tell you the answer
is it one milligram is it one milligram per kilogram is it one milli equivalents per kilogram
or 300 milligrams so that moment is up and the correct answer is 300 milligrams that's
the correct answer and i have bold it in kind of green colors so you can see it it could pop out
question number two which condition is an indication to stop or withhold resuscitative
effort a on witness arrest me safety trip to a provider's patient age greater than 85
no return of spontaneous circulation after 10 minutes of cpr so which condition is a
indication to stop if of course you have to always establish that the scene is safe
if the scene is not safe then you're putting yourself at risk for harm so you you can stop
if there's safety of this safe if the scene is not safe so b is the correct answer for question two
question three what is the recommended next step after a defibrillation attempt
is it a open the patient airway b determine carotid pulse c check the ecg for evidence of
rhythm d begin cpr starting with compressions so take a moment and think about the answer
so the correct answer for this question is to check the ecg for evidence of rhythm
guys if you have any questions or any concerns um please log on to the american heart association
2020 guidelines for um evidence-based practice um research on the latest evidence based practice on
cpr training so please log on to them they provide evidence-based practice and they their information
is the most current and most accurate question number five what is the recommended second dose of
adenosine for a patient in refractory but stable narrow complex tachycardia a three milligrams b
six milligrams c nine milligrams d 12 milligrams so take a moment and think about the answer
so the correct answer is 12 milligrams that's the

that was question five let's this is should be question six then okay what is the

that moment is up and the correct answer is c 160 to 325 milligrams
so we did five we did six so this should be question number seven
how long should it take to perform a pulse check during the bls survey a
one to five milligrams one to five seconds
b
five to ten second
c
10 to 15 seconds
d
so the correct answer take a moment and think about it
correct answer is b 5 to 10 seconds to check the character pulse if there is no pulse
then you have to start cpr
it's question eight
question eight what is the recommended compression rate for performing cpr
think about it guys think about the answer a 60 to 80
80 to 100 hundred
is it d as in david at least 100 per minute that's the correct answer for question eights
d as in david at least a hundred per minute nine question number
nine what is the most reliable method of confirming placement of an in the tracheal two
a five point auscultation b colorimetric capnography continuous way from capnography
the use of essavital detective device so take a moment and think about it and
the correct answer is continue away from capnography c is the

is it 90 millimeters of mercury 85 millimeters of mercury 80 millimeters of mercury 75 millimeters
of mercury think about it you're hypotensive means your blood pressure is dropping you don't have
enough fluid maybe you're in a cardiogenic shock or um fluid volume depth deficits
so the correct answer is a 90 millimeters of mercury that's the correct answer for number
number 11
number 12
what is the appropriate ventilation strategy for an adult in respiratory address with a pulse rate
of 80 breaths per minute one breath every three to four seconds one breath every five to six seconds

defibrillated what is the next action a check for pulse b administering

d repeats the unsynchronized shock increasing to 200 joules
so take a moment and think about it what do you think is the correct answer
