10 secondsA 6 month old infant is unresponsive. You begin checking for breathing at the same time you check for the infants pulse. Which is the maximum time you should spend when trying to simultaneously check for breathing and palpate the infants pulse before starting CPR?

The most determining factor in relation to a child's cardiac output is the?Heart rate What pharmacologic intervention in the presence of anaphylactic shock has almost no immediate benefit?Corticosteroids. What side effect is not commonly associated with the administration of albuterol?Bradycardia. When performing a pulse check in a child, the provider should?palpate the carotid pulse ( brachial artery in infants). The grunting sound heard in many lower airway diseases is caused by?air pu...
