Each case provides scene safety, initial assessment cues, vital signs, and escalation details that require next-step decision making for BLS interventions, airway positioning, oxygen delivery, and effective bag-mask ventilation. The materials include a student testing form, instructor guidance, and a pass/remediation STOP test structure.
