    What must wear before providing first-aid to anyone in the workplace.

    • Protective gloves.

    • CPR barrier.

    • Clean clothes.

    • A first-aid certification card.

    Correct Answer
    A. Protective gloves.
    Explanation
    When providing first-aid to anyone in the workplace, it is important to wear protective gloves. This is because gloves act as a barrier between the first aider and the injured person, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and the transmission of any potential pathogens or bodily fluids. Wearing gloves helps to protect both the first aider and the injured person from potential infections or diseases that could be present. It is a safety precaution that ensures the well-being of both parties involved in the first-aid process.

    Your respond to a patient that has spilled hot coffee on their hand.  The skin on the top of the had is red and the person complains of pain.  What should you do?

    • Apply burn cream to the effect skin and wrap with sterile dressing.

    • Put a bag of ice or cold compress on the burn air until the swelling and pain reduces.

    • Hold the hand under cold running water from a faucet for several minutes.

    • Pour ice cold water over the burn area.

    • None of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. Hold the hand under cold running water from a faucet for several minutes.
    Explanation
    When a person spills hot coffee on their hand, the first step is to cool the burn. Holding the hand under cold running water from a faucet for several minutes helps to lower the temperature of the burn and prevent further damage. This action also helps to reduce pain and swelling. Applying burn cream and wrapping with sterile dressing may be done after cooling the burn, but the immediate priority is to cool the burn with cold water. Using a bag of ice or cold compress may not provide consistent cooling as compared to running water. Pouring ice-cold water over the burn area may cause further damage to the skin.

    • Stop and wait for emergency services to arrive.

    • Continue performing CPR.

The cracking sound is often caused by the breaking of ribs, which can happen due to the force applied during chest compressions. While it may be alarming, it is important to continue CPR as it is crucial for maintaining blood circulation and increasing the chances of survival for the person in cardiac arrest.

    To clean a dirty open wound, you should use? - ProProfs

    To clean a dirty open wound, you should use?

    • Water.

    • Alcohol.

    • Hydrogen peroxide.

    • Antiseptic wipes.

    • None of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. Water.
    Explanation
    Water is the correct answer because it is the safest and most effective option for cleaning a dirty open wound. Water helps to remove dirt, debris, and bacteria from the wound without causing further damage or irritation. Alcohol and hydrogen peroxide can be too harsh and may delay the healing process by damaging healthy tissue. Antiseptic wipes may contain chemicals that can irritate the wound. Therefore, using water is recommended as it is gentle and readily available for wound cleaning.

    911
    Explanation
    In emergency situations, when a patient is in need of epinephrine, the use of this medicine should only be approved by 911.

    While at work you must provide first-aid if someone needs help?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Providing first-aid at work is not a requirement for all employees. It depends on the nature of the job and the level of training an individual has received. While it is encouraged for workplaces to have trained first-aiders, it is not mandatory for every employee to provide first-aid. Therefore, the statement is false.

    We use ________ pads for dressing burn wounds.

    Correct Answer
    nonadherent
    bloodstoppers
    blood compress
    non adherent
    non-adherent
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "non-adherent." Non-adherent pads are used for dressing burn wounds because they do not stick to the wound, allowing for easy removal without causing further damage or pain. Bloodstoppers and blood compress are not specifically designed for dressing burn wounds, and "non adherent" is a misspelling of the correct term "non-adherent."
