poor chest rise and poor air entry bilaterally. What action should you take next?
Provide bag mask ventilation - correct answer. After rectal administration of diazepam,
an 8 year old boy with a history of seizures is no unresponsive to painful stimuli. His

the rhythm shown here. Defibrillation is attempted with a shock dose of 2 J/kg. after

high quality CPR?
blood pressure - correct answer. You are caring for a 3 month old boy with a 2 day
history of fever, vomiting and diarrhea. His parents state that he has been sleeping
much more. His HR is 190/min, temp is 38.3 degrees C (101 F) blood pressure is 59/29
mmHg, Resp rate is 70/min and shallow, and oxygen sat is 94% on 100% oxygen. His
capillary refills time is 4-5 seconds, and he has mottled, cool extremities. The infant
weighs 6 Kg. Which assessment finding indicates that the infant is in hypotensive
shock?
hypovolemic shock - correct answer. You are caring for a 3 month old boy with a 2
day history of fever, vomiting and diarrhea. His parents state that he has been sleeping
much more. His HR is 190/min, temp is 38.3 degrees C (101 F) blood pressure is 59/29
mmHg, Resp rate is 70/min and shallow, and oxygen sat is 94% on 100% oxygen. His
capillary refills time is 4-5 seconds, and he has mottled, cool extremities. The infant
weighs 6 Kg. On the basis of this infants presentation, which type of shock does this
infant have?
20 ml/kg normal saline - correct answer. You are caring for a 3 month old boy with a 2
day history of fever, vomiting and diarrhea. His parents state that he has been sleeping
much more. His HR is 190/min, temp is 38.3 degrees C (101 F) blood pressure is 59/29
mmHg, Resp rate is 70/min and shallow, and oxygen sat is 94% on 100% oxygen. His
capillary refills time is 4-5 seconds, and he has mottled, cool extremities. The infant
