I have not taken acls or used it in eight years and no review. I took quiz one to evaluate my retention. I also tried the quick rhythm. I was happy with 70 percent and will be retaking the class soon for a new position. The rhythms I would say were fair because those heart blocks were always a challenge to me. Enjoyed this and will be using it more and more.

Good questions
coradcor says
i thought the first thing to do with arrest is to get iv/io access and give epi. my book clearly states that asystole is NOT a shockable rhythym. is’nt cardiac arrest asystolic ? i mean, your heart topped beating. please advise,
tom
coradcor says
oops, i just accessed older comments and found my answer. thanks, jeff. i get it now.

#9, Although I understand the importance of early defibrillation, but, what if you are alone and no help/AED available for a few minutes, you best be doing CPR or you won’t need an AED.
Jeff with admin. says
If you are alone and have an AED avaliable with a witnessed cardiac arrest, you should attached the defibrillator ASAP and shock if indicated. With witnessed cardiac arrest (you see the patient collapse) SHOCK is the most important intervention.
If you do not witness the patient collapse then CPR would be in order for 5 cycles before attaching the AED.
Kind regards,
Jeff
Claudia Almeida says
First you check if scene is safe, then you check for response/breathing, if not breathing you call emergency and get defib, etc…so none of the above, I thought…
Jeff with admin. says
This is a question specifically about the new 2010-2015 ACLS guidelines which changed the ABC’s of cardiac arrest to CAB of cardiac arrest. The question was not asking for the entire sequence from start to finish but the overall sequence that is contained in the CAB acronym.
Kind regards,
Jeff

I found it easy,
sjs218 says
I am a bit confused on this 30 compressions, I thought was 100
Jeff with admin. says
Question #7 reads:
“7. During CPR with no advanced airway in place the compression-to-ventilation ratio is:”
The compression to ventilation ratio is 30:2 when no advanced airway is in place. This does not have to do with the minimum number of compressions per minute for CPR which is 100.
AHA ACLS manual pg. 63. “A cycle consists of 30 compressions followed by 2 ventilations in the patient without an advanced airway.”
Kind regards,
Jeff
reny mathew says
got 9/10. good to go through this before the test
SOLOMON BINAIKEIYE says
so great, i actually refreshed my memory. i love this!!!
johnny rodriguez says
you cant shock asystole so you need to compress.
Jeff with admin. says
The most common rhythm seen with sudden witness cardiac arrest is not asystole. It is ventricular fibrillation. Therefore, the most important consideration is early defibrillation.
Kind regards,
Jeff
