side

decompression on the left chest

16. A 4-year-old is being treated for hypovolemic shock and has received a single fluid
bolus of 20 mL/kg of normal saline. On reevaluation the child remains anxious, with a
heart rate of 140/min, a blood pressure of 84/54 mm Hg, and a capillary refill time of 4
seconds. What describes this patient's condition?
A. Hypotensive shock
B. Compensated shock
C. No longer in shock
D. Cardiogenic shock - Compensated shock

17. An 8-year-old child had a sudden onset of palpitations and light-headedness. At the

18. A 10-year-old child had a sudden witnessed cardiac arrest and received immediate
bystander CPR and defibrillation within 3 minutes. He had a return of spontaneous
circulation. The child remains unresponsive and has an advanced airway in place.
There is no history of trauma or signs of shock. What is the target range for oxygen
saturation for this child?
A. 92% to 100%
B. 92% to 99%
C. 94% to 99%
D. 94% to 100% - 94% to 99%

,19. A 3-month-old infant with bronchiolitis is suctioned to remove upper airway
secretions. The infant's heart rate decreases from 155/min to 65/min as shown below.
The infant remains alert, with easily palpable pulses. Capillary refill time is 1 second.
What is the most appropriate initial intervention?
A. Administer oxygen and ensure adequate ventilation; be prepared to intervene further
if heart rate does not increase
B. Establish IV/IO access and administer epinephrine 0.01 mg/kg IV
C. Establish IV/IO access and administer atropine 0.02 mg/kg IV
D. Call for help and prepare to provide transthoracic pacing/transvenous pacing -
Administer oxygen and ensure adequate ventilation; be prepared to intervene further if
heart rate

20. A 3-month-old infant with bronchiolitis is intubated for management of respiratory
failure. During transport, the infant develops bradycardia with a heart rate of 60/min, and

side, but no air entry is heard on the left side. What is the most appropriate initial
intervention?

should be administered
