You and your colleague respond to an adult victim who is unresponsive. After assessing that the victim is not breathing and has no pulse, what do you instruct your colleague to do?

Activate the emergency response system and get the AED

What is the recommended depth of compressions in infants?

Approximately 1 1/2 inches (4cm)

when using a pocket mask, where should the rescuer be positioned?

At the side of the victim

The AED detects a shockable rhythm and advises a shock. After delivering 1 shock, you and your partner immediately resume CPR by using what ratio and which compressions technique?

Complete cycles of 15 compressions and 2 breaths, and use the 2 thumb-encircling hands technique

As you are providing CPR, your colleague arrives, turns on the AED, and follows the prompts. The AED analyzes the rhythm and does not advise a shcok. After you immediately resume CPR, how do you continute treating the patient?

Continue CPR until prompted by the AED to allow a rhythm check, the code team arrives, or the patient starts to move

You are still preforming CPR as a single rescuer. The AED detects a shockable rhythm and advises a shock. After delivering 1 shock, you immediately resume CPR with what ratio of compressions to breaths?

Cycles of 30 compressions to 2 breaths

To avoid fatigue, when should team roles alternate providing compressions?

Every 5 cycles or 2 minutes

What is the preferred method for pulse check in an infant?

Place 2 or 3 fingers in the inside of the upper arm, midway between the infant's elbow and shoulder

The infant is unresponsive when you tap her foot and shout, "Are you OK?" She could be in cardiac arrest. What is your next step?

For 5 to 10 seconds, look for no breathing or only gasping while simultaneously checking the carotid pulse

The child is unresponsive after you tape his shoulders and shout, "Are you OK?" She could be in cardiac arrest. What is your next step?

For 5 to 10 seconds, look for no breathing while simultaneously checking the carotid pulse

You check the child's pulse after 2 minutes of providing rescue breaths and cannot feel a pulse. You immediately begin CPR. After performing CPR for 2 more minutes. the child still does not have a pulse and you are still alone. What is your next step?

Get and use an AED
