What are the most commonly presenting rhythms in pediatric arrests?

  • A. Ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia
  • B. Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) or asystole
  • C. Atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter
  • D. None of the above
Answer: B. Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) or asystole
About 85% of pediatric patients in cardiac arrest present with pulseless electrical activity (PEA) or asystole. That’s why administering high-quality CPR is crucial to maximizing your chances of a successful resuscitation.

True or False? It is imperative to pause chest compressions for at least 15 seconds to check the underlying rhythm.

  • A. True
  • B. False
Answer: B. False
Minimizing interruptions is critical during CPR. Rhythm checks should be brief; if a shock is indicated, CPR should resume immediately after it is delivered.

Studies show that over 90% of manual ventilation today can either be excessive or insufficient. To help clinicians provide high-quality ventilation, what kind of feedback do you think is more important?

  • A. Target volume
  • B. Target rate
  • C. Target and delivered volume and rate
Answer: C. Target and delivered volume and rate
Poor ventilation quality likely occurs today due to a lack of real-time feedback. Real BVM Help®, a groundbreaking new technology, provides clinicians with real-time ventilation feedback on both volume and rate for intubated and non-intubated patients.

________ occurs when blood flow to the heart is impeded due to a blocked artery.

  • A. Heart Attack
  • B. SCA
Answer: A. Heart Attack
During a heart attack, the blood supply to the heart muscle is suddenly blocked, resulting in the death of the heart muscle. During SCA, the heart abruptly stops beating properly when its electrical system malfunctions.

Residual leaning is primarily a hindrance to:

  • A. Compression depth
  • B. Compression rate
  • C. Chest compression fraction
  • D. Full chest recoil
Answer: D. Full chest recoil
Full chest recoil is crucial during CPR. It allows the heart to refill with venous blood before the next compression so that output can be maximized with each compression.

What do you think is more important during CPR?

  • A. Good chest compressions
  • B. Good chest recoil
  • C. Both are critically important
Answer: C. Both are critically important
A lot of emphasis has been placed on the importance of good chest compressions, with much less on “good” chest recoil. However, good chest recoil is one of the components of high-quality CPR. The ERC Guidelines recommend allowing for full chest recoil after each compression to allow the heart to fill again with venous blood.
