The 2015 AHA Guidelines for CPR recommended BLS sequence of steps are:

  Chest compressions, Airway, Breathing

  Airway, Breathing, Check Pulse

  Airway, Breathing, Chest compressions

  None of the above

The initial Basic Life Support (BLS) steps for adults are:

  Assess the individual, activate EMS and get AED, check pulse, and start CPR

  Assess the individual, give two rescue breaths, defibrillate, and start CPR

  Check pulse, give rescue breaths, assess the individual, and defibrillate

  None of the above

In both children and infants, the compression to ventilation ratio for two-rescuer CPR is:

  15:01

  30:01:00

  30:02:00

  15:02

Why are breaths so important for children and infants in cardiac arrest?

  Because they often have respiratory failure that reduces the oxygen content in the blood before the onset of arrest.

  Because they have smaller lungs.

  Because breaths help to dislodge foreign bodies.

  None of the above

Rescue breaths for children and infants should be administered how often?

  Every 10 to 12 seconds (5 to 6 breaths per minute)

  Every 5 to 6 seconds (10 to 12 breaths per minute)

  Every 20 to 30 seconds (2 to 3 breaths per minute)

  Every 3 to 5 seconds (12 to 20 breaths per minute)

  Head-tilt maneuver only

  Jaw-thrust maneuver

  Blind finger-sweeps

  Head-tilt-chin-lift maneuver

Which of the following may be essential to maintaining an individual’s airway open?

Homework Answers

Answer #1

1.True ,The underlying cause of arrest in an infant or child is usually respiratory ,the priority is to begin CPR and then to activate the EMS after 2minutes of CPR.

2True if the child is not breathing deliver 2rescue breaths after 30chest compressions ie 15chest compressions if 2rescuers are present.the ventilation should last 1sec and should produce visible chest rise.

3 True When two or more rescuers are present one should continue with the compressions while the other powers up the AED.

4a

5d

6a Because the underlying cause of arrest in an infant is usually respiratory.

7d every 3 seconds.

8d An obstructed airway needs to be suspected whenvthe rescuer cannot give the initial ventilation and Helminch maneuver should be addressed to relieve the obstruction.

9a

10a Jaw thrust is used in head or spine injury.
