5A 9 year old child has suddenly collapsed.

10A 53 year old women collapses while gardening. She is unresponsive, is not breathing, and does not have a pulse. A neighbor, who is an emergency medical technician, rushes to her with an AED.

- BClear the patient
- CFollow the AED prompts
- DCheck the victim for a carotid pulse
11Why is allowing complete chest recoil important when performing high-quality CPR?
- AThe heart will adequately refill between compressions
- BThere will be a reduction of rescuer fatigue
- CThe rate of chest compressions will increase
- DIt will reduce the risk of rib fractures

- BProviding rescue breaths
- CChecking the pulse frequently
- DPerforming high-quality CPR
