Correct Answer
A. 120Explanation
The minimum systolic blood pressure required for the administration of nitroglycerin is 120. Nitroglycerin is a medication used to treat angina (chest pain) by relaxing and widening blood vessels, which helps to increase blood flow and oxygen to the heart. It is typically given when the systolic blood pressure is above 120 to ensure that the medication is effective and does not cause a sudden drop in blood pressure.Rate this question:

-
15,2
-
5,15
-
15,5
-
10,5
Correct Answer
A. 15,5Explanation
Upon reassessment, vital signs should be checked every 15 minutes for a stable patient and every 5 minutes for an unstable patient. This frequency allows healthcare professionals to closely monitor the condition of unstable patients who may experience rapid changes in their vital signs. Stable patients, on the other hand, require less frequent monitoring as their condition is not expected to change significantly in a short period of time.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. 1600Explanation
An adult-sized BVM (Bag Valve Mask) is designed to deliver a specific volume of air or oxygen to a patient during resuscitation or ventilation. This volume is typically around 1600 milliliters, which is the correct answer. BVMs are commonly used in emergency situations to provide temporary breathing support until more advanced interventions can be performed. The volume delivered by the BVM is important to ensure adequate oxygenation and ventilation of the patient's lungs.Rate this question:

You may refuse to grant an RMA and also ask law enforcement to forcibly restrain and transport a patient if their GCS is below:
-
12
-
15
-
14
-
5
Correct Answer
A. 15Explanation
If a patient's Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is below 15, it indicates that their level of consciousness is impaired. The GCS measures eye opening, verbal response, and motor response, with a score of 15 indicating normal functioning. If the score is below 15, it suggests a potential medical emergency, and the patient may require immediate medical intervention. In such cases, it is appropriate to refuse to grant a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) and involve law enforcement to ensure the patient's safety and transport them to a healthcare facility for further evaluation and treatment.Rate this question:
