Team Response Scenario: Bill Goodman

Mr. Goodman is exhibiting signs and symptoms of which condition?

Heart attack

After the resuscitation event, the BLS team conducted a debriefing session to ensure continuous CPR quality improvement. Which observation or data point suggested a need for improvement?

The chest compression (CCF) was 58%.

Joanne and Valerie switched to operating the BVM. While Joanne sealed the mask Kama Valley depressed the bag. What is the correct volume of air to deliver during ventilations?

700mL

Joanne correctly apply the AED pads using the anterior/lateral position. However, if Mr. Goodman had a pacemaker or ICD, she would adjust pad placement as necessary to avoid placing the AED pads directly over the pacemaker or ICD. True or false?

True

Mr. Goodman is unresponsive. Valerie must simultaneously check for breathing and appals for at least 5 seconds but no more than _____.

10

To minimize interruptions in chest compressions, what should Valerie do during the AED analyse and shock?

Hover over the patient's chest, ensuring that she is not touching the patient.

If capnography were in us, an ETCO2 level of _____ would indicate to the team that there could be a problem with the quality of chest compressions.

Less then 10mmHg

Valerie has established that Mr. Goodman does not have a pulse and is not breathing, and she has exposed the chest. She must immediately begin CPR while Joanne retrieves and sets up to AED. Which actions should the team take to ensure that they are providing high - quality CPR?

- Provide smooth compressions at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute and the death of at least 2 inches. - Allow the chest to fully recoil after each compression. - Minimize interruptions in compressions to less then 10 seconds. - Avoid excessive Ventilations.

Kirron arrived and took over compressions. To ensure high - quality CPR, providers should switch off giving compressions every _____ minutes or sooner if the provider giving compression is fatigue.
