What is the Nursing Management of a Child With a Pediatric Emergency?
- CORRECT ANSWER Maintaining a patent airway
Providing supplemental oxygen
Monitoring for changes in status
Assisting ventilation
Offering support and education to the child and family

What are Airway and Ventilation Methods?
- CORRECT ANSWER Anesthesia bag or flow-inflating ventilation system
Bag-valve-mask device or manual resuscitator
Laryngeal mask airway
Tracheal intubation

The nurse assisting a child in respiratory distress inserts the rubber connecting tube of an
inflatable silicone mask blindly into the airway to form a seal. What method of resuscitation is
being performed by the nurse?

a. anesthesia bag
b. flow-inflating ventilation system
c. bag-valve-mask device
d. laryngeal mask airway - CORRECT ANSWER d. laryngeal mask airway. Using this method, the
nurse inserts the rubber connecting tube of an inflatable silicone mask blindly into the airway to
form a seal.
Rationale: Using an anesthesia bag or flow-inflating ventilation system involves a small
collapsible bag that consists of a reservoir bag, an overflow port, and a fresh gas inflow port. A
bag-valve-mask device is a self-inflating oxygen delivery bag that does not need a source of
oxygen for resuscitation and ventilation.

Central IV route
Saphenous vein
Intraosseous access

Is the following statement true or false?
The nurse accessing a vein to manage a child while CPR is in progress uses the recommended

central venous access while CPR is in progress.
Rationale: The femoral route is best for obtaining central venous access while CPR is in progress
because the insertion procedure will not interfere with life-saving interventions involving the
airway and cardiac compressions. The saphenous vein (found in the ankle) is an alternative
route for venous access that is obtained using a surgical incision.
