  • 2. 

    Remember your ABC's when responding to an unconscious person (Airway/Breathing/Circulation)

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because when responding to an unconscious person, the first priority is to ensure their airway is open and clear. This involves checking if there are any obstructions and positioning the person's head to maintain a clear airway. The next step is to check for breathing, by observing the rise and fall of their chest or feeling for breath on your cheek. Finally, circulation is assessed by checking for a pulse. This ABC approach is a basic guideline for providing immediate care to an unconscious person.

    A person can suffer brain damage if deprived of oxygen for more than four minutes

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    If a person is deprived of oxygen for more than four minutes, it can lead to brain damage. The brain requires a constant supply of oxygen to function properly, and if this supply is cut off for an extended period, it can cause irreversible damage to the brain cells. Lack of oxygen can result from various factors such as drowning, suffocation, or cardiac arrest. Therefore, it is essential to provide immediate medical attention in such situations to prevent brain damage.

  • 4. 

    If there is a pulse but no breathing, give one(1) rescue breath every five(5) to six(6) seconds

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    If there is a pulse but no breathing, giving one rescue breath every five to six seconds is the correct procedure. This is because even if the person has a pulse, they may still not be getting enough oxygen, and providing rescue breaths helps to deliver oxygen to the lungs. By giving rescue breaths at this interval, it ensures a consistent and sufficient supply of oxygen to the person in need. Therefore, the statement is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    When no pulse is found, CPR should be administered by applying

    • 10 chest compressions to 1 breath

    • 15 chest compressions to 2 breaths

    • 2 chest compressions to 15 breaths

    Correct Answer
    A. 15 chest compressions to 2 breaths
    Explanation
    When no pulse is found, CPR should be administered by applying 15 chest compressions to 2 breaths. This ratio is recommended by the American Heart Association for adult CPR. The purpose of chest compressions is to circulate blood to vital organs, while breaths provide oxygen to the lungs. The ratio of 15 compressions to 2 breaths ensures a balance between maintaining blood circulation and providing oxygenation. This allows for effective resuscitation and increases the chances of survival for the individual in need of CPR.

    Explanation
