ACLS Final Exam Questions and Answers 100% Pass A patient experiences cardiac arrest, and the resuscitation team initiates ventilations using a bag-valve-mask (BVM) resuscitator. The development of which condition during the provision of care would lead the team to suspect that improper BVM technique is being used? Hypertension Esophageal injury Pneumothorax Rib fracture - Answer- Pneumothorax Complications can occur with the use of a BVM resuscitator due to improper technique. Delivering excessive volume or ventilating too fast creates excessive pressure that can damage the airways, lungs and other organs. Excessive volume can lead to tension pneumothorax. A person suddenly collapses while sitting in the sunroom of a healthcare facility. A healthcare provider observes the event and hurries over to assess the situation. The healthcare provider performs which assessment first? Rapid assessment Basic life support assessment Secondary assessment Primary assessment - Answer- Rapid assessment A systematic approach to assessment is necessary. The healthcare provider should first perform a rapid assessment. A rapid assessment is a visual survey to ensure safety, form an initial impression about the patient's condition (including looking for life- threatening bleeding), and determine the need for additional resources. This would be followed by a primary assessment and then a secondary assessment. A patient is receiving ventilation support via bag-valve-mask (BVM) resuscitator. Capnography is established and a blood gas is obtained to evaluate the adequacy of the ventilations. Which arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) value signifies adequate ventilations? 10 to 15 mmHg 20 to 25 mmHg 25 to 30 mmHg 35 to 45 mmHg - Answer- 35 to 45 mmHg Arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) values in the range of 35 to 45 mmHg confirm adequacy of ventilation. A resuscitation team is debriefing following a recent event. A patient experienced cardiac arrest, and advanced life support was initiated. The patient required the placement of an advanced airway to maintain airway patency. Which statement indicates that the team performed high-quality CPR?

each medication administration with a bolus of fluid. How much would the


team member give?

tions administrated through the IV or intraosseous infusion route should be


followed by a 10- to 20-mL fluid bolus.


3. The resuscitation team suspects that hyperkalemia is the cause of cardiac


arrest in a patient brought to the emergency department. Which finding on a


12-lead ECG would confirm this suspicion?


Wide-complex ventricular rhythm and tall, peaked T waves


ST-segment changes, T-wave inversion


Flat T waves, prominent U waves and possibly prolonged QT intervals


Narrow-complex ventricular tachycardia: Wide-complex ventricular rhythm and


tall, peaked T waves




In hyperkalemia the patient's 12-lead ECG rhythm strip will show wide-complex

ventricular rhythm and tall, peaked T waves.


4. A patient with an ischemic stroke arrives at the emergency department at


2 a.m. The patient's symptoms started about 12:30 a.m. After completing the


necessary assessments, the healthcare team diagnoses an ischemic stroke,


and the patient is determined to be a candidate for fibrinolytic therapy. To


achieve the best outcomes, the team should initiate therapy for this patient
