study in a test format. You could also us the test study feature on quizlet. Hope this helps you

study some basic ACLS.* - Answer✔✔-https://www.aclsmedicaltraining.com/practice-tests/


A 5-year-old child in supraventricular tachycardia has adequate pulses with the rhythm.

Supplemental oxygen is in place and vital signs are stable except for the elevated heart rate. The

most appropriate next intervention for this child is: - Answer✔✔-Vagal Maneuvers




*Rationale:* Vagal maneuvers are a reasonable first intervention for supraventricular

tachycardia in a hemodynamically stable patient, as this child is.


A child has an advanced airway in place during cardiac arrest. How frequently should

ventilations be given? - Answer✔✔-Every 6-8 Seconds




8-10 BPM

,EMILLECT 2024/2025 ACADEMIC YEAR ©2024 EMILLECT. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. FIRST PUBLISH OCTOBER 2024.



*Rationale:* The latest AHA guidelines recommend one ventilation every six seconds, or 10 per

minute, when an advanced airway is in place.


You are using a bag-valve mask to resuscitate an infant, while another rescuer is performing

chest compressions. What is the correct ratio of chest compressions to ventilations? -

Answer✔✔-15 chest compressions to 2 ventilations




*Rationale:* The AHA suggests that during a pediatric resuscitation with two or more rescuers

present, the correct ratio of chest compressions to ventilations is 15:2.


You are alone performing infant CPR. What is the correct ratio of chest compressions to

ventilations? - Answer✔✔-30 chest compressions to 2 ventilations




*Rationale:* The AHA suggests that during a pediatric resuscitation with only one rescuer

present, the correct ratio of chest compressions to ventilations is 30:2.


A 7 month old appears to be unconscious and not breathing. You check for a pulse at the

________ artery. - Answer✔✔-Brachial




*Rationale:* Rescuers should use the brachial artery in the upper arm to check for a pulse. The

artery is easily palpable in infants and young children.


A clear sign of upper airway obstruction is: - Answer✔✔-A "whistling" sound during breathing

*Rationale:* A "whistling" sound during breathing usually indicates *stridor.* Crying suggests

full lung function, as does breath sounds in all lung fields. Decreased inspiratory effort is a non-

specific sign, but may reflect a central process (i.e. consequence of head trauma).


In children, which of the following is the most common form of arrest? - Answer✔✔-Respiratory

arrest




*Rationale:* Respiratory distress, failure, and arrest are the most common conditions

prompting PALS care. In fact, most cases of pediatric cardiac arrest are preceded by respiratory

issues.


In small children, a rescue breath should be given: - Answer✔✔-Over one second




*Rationale:* Rescue breaths and ventilations should be delivered over one second, regardless of

the patient's age.


What is the normal range of heart rates for an 8-year-old child? - Answer✔✔-*Answer:* 60-140

per minute *(The ACLS test I took says this. This is most likely a older ACLS test. According to

2015 Handbook of Emergency Cardiovascular Care it says for a school-age child the rate is 75-

118.)*
