ACLS quiz Which are the elements of a system of care? Structure, processes, system, patient outcome What element of a system of care is represented by properly functioning resuscitation equipment? Structure Among others, which factor has been associated with improved survival in patients with cardiac arrest? Immediate high - quality CPR What is the first link in the out -of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) chain of survival? Activation of emergency response What are signs of clinical deterioration that would prompt the activation of a rapid response system? Systemic hypertension, unexplained agitation, seizure What is the primary purpose of a rapid response team (RRT) or medical emergency team (MET)? To improve patient outcomes by identifying and treating early clinical deterioration What happens when teams rapidly assess and intervene when p atients have abnormal vital signs? The number of in -hospital cardiac - arrest decreases In addition to decreased IHCA, what are some other benefits of implementing a rapid response system? Decrease ICU length of stay, decreased in total hospital length of s tay Which component of effective high -performance teams is represented by the use of real -time feedback devices? Quality What is the main advantage of effective teamwork? Division of tasks Which is the best example of a role of the team leader? Models excellent team behavior Which is the best example of a role of a team member? Prepared to fulfill their role responsibilities What is primary purpose of the CPR coach on a resuscitation team?

Decrease coronary perfusion pressure Coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) equals aortic ---- pressure minus right atrial diastolic pressure. diastolic What is the only intervention that can restore on organize rhythm in patients with ventricular fibrillation (VF)? Early and effective defibrillation
