Vladimir Safronov says
Scenario 1, question 10. Instead 30:2 it should be 15:2
ACLS says
The 15:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio is not indicated for adult Basic Life Support (BLS) CPR. Current guidelines for adult CPR recommend a compression-to-ventilation ratio of 30:2, whether performed by a single rescuer or two rescuers. The 15:2 ratio is used only for children and infants when there are two rescuers present.

SHARON WILLIAMS says
Maybe I’m reaching but it seems “if I have shouted for help” is that not considered activation of emergency response team…should I not then start cpr ? At first the go for help if no one responds?
ACLS says
Shouting for help is not sufficient to be considered activation of emergency response team. One exception would be if you see someone and shout to them specifically to activate the emergency response team get a crash cart.
The instruction to activate the emergency response team needs to be given specifically to a person and not just a random shout that may not reach any hearing ears.
Kind regards,
Jeff
DavetheMD says
In question 2, you have already established unresponsiveness. Why doesn’t CPR for start immediately, while you power the AED?
ACLS says
In question #2, you establish that the patient is unresponsive. Not sure if you were referring to question #3, but if you were since this was a witnessed arrest you would want to activate emergency services prior to beginning CPR.
Kind regards, Jeff
Anita Hernandez says
Hi Jeff.
Question #9 should d be a part of correct answer since there is no advanced airway yet?
Brigitte Lecours says
Hello
If l saw the man collapse
The first step is not to get defibe because the most cause is VF ?????????????
Thanks you
Brigitte
ACLS says
For witnesses arrest the most likely cause of arrest is VF and the most important intervention is to defibrillate as soon as possible.
Kind regards,
Jeff
Rosemary B. says
Question 7 : Is the compressions:breath ratio 30:2 with 2 rescuers? prior to this you said a second person came on the scene.
ACLS says
For infants and children the compression ratio with two rescuers is 15:2
For adults, the compression ratio is 30:2 regardless of the number of rescuers.
Kind regards,
Jeff
