When is an AED recommended to be used?

3

What is the recommended chest compression rate for CPR?

4

How deep should adult chest compressions be during CPR?

5

Single rescuer CPR: what is the compression-to-ventilation ratio?

6

Which sign indicates probable return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)?

7

What does an AED do during cardiac arrest?

8

What is the recommended sequence of actions in adult CPR (basic steps)?

9

True or False: Mouth-to-mouth breaths are always required in CPR?

10

What should you do if chest recoil is incomplete during CPR?

11

Which drug is first-line treatment for symptomatic bradycardia in adults?

12

Which medication is commonly used for stable ventricular tachycardia when the patient is perfusing?

13

Identify the rhythm: irregularly irregular rhythm with no distinct P waves.

14

Which rhythm is characterized by a rapid, irregular rhythm with chaotic ventricular activity and no organized complexes?

15

Which medication is the preferred antiarrhythmic for torsades de pointes due to long QT?

16

Which drug is commonly used to terminate paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT)?

17

Which medication is often used during cardiac arrest to increase coronary and cerebral perfusion?

18

Identify the rhythm: regular, wide QRS complexes with no discernible P waves in a patient with a pulse?

19

Which medication is used to slow AV nodal conduction in certain tachyarrhythmias?

20

Which rhythm is described as a sawtooth pattern on ECG tracing?

Feedback

Begin by calling for help and starting chest compressions as needed.

Early defibrillation for shockable rhythms improves outcomes.

Maintaining 100–120/min optimizes blood flow during CPR.

Depth around 5 cm ensures effective chest compression.

Standard ratio for a single rescuer is 30:2.

ROSC presents as recognizable physiological improvements.

AEDs analyze rhythm and shock when appropriate.

Follow the basic life support sequence for efficiency.

CPR can be hands-only for lay rescuers; breaths are added when trained.

Full recoil improves venous return and effectiveness of compressions.

Atropine blocks vagal influence to increase heart rate. Epinephrine is a pressor, Adenosine for SVT, Lidocaine for VT/VF.

Amiodarone is a first-line antiarrhythmic for stable VT. Adenosine treats SVT, Magnesium for torsades, Verapamil can worsen VT.

AFib shows irregular R-R intervals and absent discrete P waves; flutter has sawtooth pattern.

VFib has chaotic electrical activity; VT presents as wide complexes with rhythm, not chaotic.

Magnesium stabilizes the myocardium in TdP; others are not specific cures for TdP.

Adenosine transiently blocks AV node conduction to reset the rhythm.

Epinephrine is a vasopressor used in arrests; Dopamine is alternative; Adenosine/Atropine have other roles.

Monomorphic VT has wide, organized QRS; VF is chaotic, with no QRS complexes.

Metoprolol (beta-blocker) reduces AV nodal conduction; Adenosine acutely terminates SVT; Lidocaine for VT/VF.

Sawtooth waves are characteristic of atrial flutter due to Flutter waves from atrial activity.
