RCP implica dar ________ compresiones, seguidas de 2 respiraciones de rescate.
Correct Answer
A. 30
Explanation
RCP implica dar 30 compresiones, seguidas de 2 respiraciones de rescate. This means that during CPR, the rescuer should perform 30 chest compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths. This ratio of compressions to breaths is recommended by the American Heart Association for effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The 30 compressions help to circulate oxygenated blood to the vital organs, while the 2 breaths provide oxygen to the lungs. This cycle is repeated continuously until professional help arrives or the victim shows signs of recovery.

Al dar RCP, que siempre da compresiones y respiraciones artificiales de rescate ... no importa qué.
Correct Answer
B. Falso
Explanation
The statement "Al dar RCP, que siempre da compresiones y respiraciones artificiales de rescate ... no importa qué" is false. It suggests that during CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), both chest compressions and artificial respirations are always given, regardless of the situation. However, the correct approach to CPR may vary depending on the specific circumstances. In some cases, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare providers may be advised to prioritize chest compressions over artificial respirations to minimize the risk of viral transmission. Therefore, the statement is incorrect.
