Hypoglycemia Hypoxemia Hypernatremia Hypertension 15 / 30 What is the recommended initial energy dose for biphasic defibrillation in adults with ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia? 100 joules 200 joules 300 joules 360 joules 16 / 30 What is the recommended sequence of actions when using an AED? Attach pads, analyze rhythm, deliver shock, resume CPR Start CPR, attach pads, analyze rhythm, deliver shock Check for breathing, attach pads, analyze rhythm, deliver shock Assess responsiveness, attach pads, deliver shock, resume CPR 17 / 30 During the use of an AED, what action should be taken immediately after delivering a shock? Check for a pulse Resume CPR with chest compressions Reassess the patient's rhythm Administer epinephrine 18 / 30 What is the primary function of the shock button on an AED? To analyze the patient's rhythm To deliver a shock to the patient's heart To activate CPR feedback To turn on the AED 19 / 30 What is the recommended age and weight cutoff for pediatric AED use? Under 1 year old and under 10 kg Under 8 years old and under 25 kg Under 10 years old and under 30 kg Under 12 years old and under 40 kg 20 / 30 What is the correct placement of AED pads for an adult patient?

After 1 minute of CPR After 2 minutes of CPR After 3 minutes of CPR After 5 minutes of CPR 22 / 30 What does the term "fully automated" refer to in the context of an AED? The AED automatically delivers shocks without user input The AED provides voice prompts to guide the user through CPR The AED analyzes the patient's rhythm continuously The AED has a built-in CPR feedback mechanism 23 / 30 Which of the following is an indication for the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED)?
