1. The compression depth for a 12 yo boy is a __________ of the depth of the chest?

Explanation

The compression depth for a 12-year-old boy is one-third of the depth of the chest. This means that when performing chest compressions on a 12-year-old boy, the depth of the compression should be one-third of the depth of his chest. This is an important guideline to follow in order to ensure effective chest compressions during CPR.

2. Where is the correct hand position to start  compressions?

Explanation

The correct hand position to start compressions is in the middle of the chest. This is because the middle of the chest is where the sternum is located, and compressions need to be performed on the sternum to effectively pump blood and oxygen to the rest of the body. Placing the hands in the middle of the chest ensures that the compressions are being applied to the correct area and maximizes the chances of successful resuscitation.

3. What volume of breath do you give to a baby?

Explanation

A puff is the correct answer because when giving breaths to a baby, it is important to provide a gentle and controlled amount of air. Blowing too forcefully or giving a full breath can be harmful to the baby's delicate respiratory system. Therefore, a puff, which is a small and controlled amount of air, is the appropriate volume of breath to give to a baby.

4. What is a defibrillator?

Explanation

A defibrillator is a device that detects when the heart goes into ventricular fibrillation, a life-threatening condition where the heart beats irregularly, and delivers an electric shock to the heart to restore its normal rhythm. The shock causes the heart to stop briefly and then restart, allowing it to pump blood effectively again.

All of the options listed are potentially dangerous in different ways. A swimming pool can be dangerous if proper safety precautions are not followed, such as drowning or accidents. A gas bottle can be dangerous if mishandled or if there is a gas leak, leading to fire or explosion. A power point can be dangerous if electrical safety measures are not followed, leading to electric shock or fire. Pool chemicals can be dangerous if not handled properly, causing chemical burns or toxic fumes. Meerkats, on the other hand, are not inherently dangerous to humans.
