What is the proper procedure for delivering rescue breaths to an 8-year-old child?

Head tilt chin lift, cover the mouth and nose with a rescue mask, and deliver 1 rescue breath every 2-3 seconds for two minutes and re-assess for a pulse
Head tilt chin lift, cover the mouth and nose with a rescue mask, and deliver 2 rescue breaths every 5 seconds for two minutes and then re-assess for a pulse

Head tilt chin lift, cover the mouth and nose with a rescue mask, and deliver 1 rescue breath every 10 seconds for two minutes and then re-assess for a pulse

When delivering rescue breaths to an infant by mask, what is the most important aspect regarding the use of a rescue mask?

The mask should be the correct size if possible and fit over only the mouth of the infant
The mask should be the correct size, if possible, and cover the nose alone

What effect does an opioid overdose have on the human body and why can it cause death?

Opioids are a central nervous system stimulant and can cause heart attacks
Opioids are a central nervous system depressant and cause a person to stop breathing
Opioids can cause a person to believe they are invincible and therefore can cause life-threatening injury
Opioids can cause severe paranoia and therefore can cause one to take their own life

After calling 911 and beginning CPR compressions, which of these describes the correct posture for delivering effective compressions?

Sitting with your arms at a 45-degree angle and your hands on the upper half of the patient's sternum

30 compressions to 2 rescue breaths
15 compressions to 1 rescue breath
30 compressions to 1 rescue breath

What is the purpose for using the jaw thrust maneuver for delivering rescue breaths vs the head-tilt/chin-lift method?

It delivers more air per breath
It moves the tongue out of the back of the throat better than a head-tilt/chin-lift maneuver
It works better for a single rescuer while performing CPR compressions
It minimizes movement of the cervical spine

Which of these best describes the purpose for “hands-only” CPR?

Hands-only CPR is better and more effective than full CPR and is now the best way to provide CPR for any patient by any responder
Hands-only CPR reduces risk of liability and increases oxygenation better than CPR with mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Hands-only CPR is now the only method for providing CPR regardless your level of education and expertise
Hands-only CPR was designed for those who are not trained or feel uncomfortable delivering mouth-to-mouth breaths. It doesn't replace traditional CPR.

While performing a Healthcare Provider Adult CPR skill evaluation, the scene is safe and the victim is assessed and found to be unresponsive and not breathing normally. What is the next step?

Call 911

Check for a pulse

Choose the most correct statement about using a bag valve mask.

Push the mask down firmly on the face of the patient to get a good seal
A bag valve mask should not be used without oxygen attached
A bag valve mask gives a much better breath than mouth to mask
Use the C-E method to draw the chin up into the mask to get a good seal

You have been performing chest compressions for about 2 minutes with another healthcare provider delivering the breaths. An AED is in use and has indicated that a shock is needed. You deliver the shock. What happens next?

Immediately resume chest compressions
The second rescuer should check for a pulse
Open the airway and give 2 breaths
The second rescuer should start compressions immediately

What is the primary role of the team leader when multiple rescuers are performing CPR on a patient?

The team leader is the only one who should perform compressions
The team leader ensures quality CPR is done and encourages other rescuers to make corrections as needed
The team leader stays at the head, maintains an open airway, and gives breaths for the entire response
The team leader attaches the AED, tells everyone to stand clear, and pushes the shock button

Choose the correct location and hand placement to perform abdominal thrusts on a choking child.

Place the thumb side of the fist just below the navel (belly button)
Place the thumb side of the fist just above the navel (belly button) but below the ribs
Place the palm side of the hand just above the navel (belly button) but below the ribs
