A patient is brought into the emergency department. The patient
does not have a pulse. The cardiac monitor shows the following
rhythm. The team interprets this as which condition? -
ANSWER- Ventricular tachycardia
A member of the resuscitation team is preparing to defibrillate a
patient in cardiac arrest using a biphasic defibrillator. The team
member would set the energy dose according to the
manufacturer's recommendations, which is usually: - ANSWER-
120 to 200 joules
A member of the resuscitation team is preparing to administer
medications intravenously to a patient in cardiac arrest. The
team member should follow each peripherally administered drug

A 30-year-old patient has been brought to the emergency
department in cardiac arrest. The cardiac monitor shows the
following rhythm. Interpretation of this rhythm would suggest
which of the following as a possible precipitating factor? -
ANSWER- Electrocution
The rhythm is ventricular fibrillation. Precipitating causes
of ventricular fibrillation include electrocution, myocardial
ischemia or infarction, shock, stimulant overdose and
ventricular tachycardia.
Cardiac monitoring of a patient in cardiac arrest reveals
ventricular fibrillation. In addition to high-quality CPR, what
intervention should be a priority for the team? - ANSWER-
Defibrillation
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? - ANSWER- Wide-complex ventricular rhythm
and tall, peaked T waves
A patient has experienced return of spontaneous circulation
(ROSC) after cardiac arrest. The healthcare team is conducting a

jugular venous distension, cyanosis, apnea and hyperresonance
on percussion. The patient was also difficult to ventilate during
the response. The team would most likely suspect which
condition as the cause? - ANSWER- Tension pneumothorax
A patient in cardiac arrest experiences return of spontaneous
circulation. As part of post-cardiac arrest care, the patient is
receiving mechanical ventilation at an initial rate of 10
breaths/min and a fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) of 0.30.
Which finding(s) would indicate the need for change in the
ventilator settings to optimize the patient's ventilation and
oxygenation? - ANSWER- ETCO2 55 mmHg
PaCO2 48 mmHg
SaO2 90%
After cardiac arrest and successful resuscitation, the patient has
a return of spontaneous circulation. The patient is unable to
follow verbal commands. Targeted temperature management is
initiated. Which method(s) would be appropriate for the
resuscitation team to use? - ANSWER- Applying cooling
blankets to the patient's body
Giving an ice-cold IV fluid bolus

oxygen. The provider determines that the supplemental oxygen
dose is correct based on which SaO2 level? - ANSWER- 93%

The ECG reveals a new ST-segment elevation at the J point in
leads V2 and V3 of at least which size? - ANSWER- 0.15 mV

refractory to sublingual nitroglycerin. Intravenous nitroglycerin
is prescribed. When administering this medication, it would be
titrated to maintain which systolic blood pressure? - ANSWER-
90 mmHg
