The material tests high-quality CPR components such as compression depth and rate, correct hand placement, and appropriate ventilation with a bag-mask device. It also evaluates AED use sequence, including pad placement, AED prompts, and scenarios like a submerged victim.

 \nA.Alternating the AED role every 2 minutes  \nB.Alternating the compressor role every 2 minutes  \nC.Alternating giving rescue breaths every 3 cycles  \nD.Alternating giving shocks every 3 cycles  \n10.\"Members of the team know their boundaries and ask for help before the resuscitation attemptworsens.”Match this statement with the most appropriate element of team dynamics listed.  \nA.Knowledge sharing  \nB.Summarizing and reevaluation  \nC.Constructive intervention  \nD.Knowing your limitations  \n11.A victim with a foreign-body airway obstruction becomes unresponsive.What is your first course ofaction?  \nA.Start CPR,beginning with chest compressions  \nB.Roll the victim over and perform back blows  \nC.Perform abdominal thrusts  \nD.Perform blind finger sweeps  \n12.Why is defibrillation important?
