Compressions without pausing for ventilations


Problem:

You and another provider have recognized that an adult patient is in cardiac arrest. An advanced airway is not in place. Which actions demonstrate appropriate care? Select all correct options that apply. Use a compression-to-ventilation ratio of 30:2. Begin CPR immediately after identifying cardiac arrest. Use a compression-to-ventilation ratio of 15:2. Switch positions every 5 minutes to minimize provider fatigue. Provide continuous compressions without pausing for ventilations. Identify the situations in which it is safe to use an AED. Select all correct options that apply. If the patient is pregnant, providing the AED pads do not incorporate any breast tissue If the patient is near flammable or combustible materials, such as free flowing oxygen If the patient is wearing jewelry or has body piercings, providing the AED pads are not placed directly over any metallic jewelry or piercings If the patient is lying on a metal surface, providing the AED pads do not touch the surface and no one is touching the patient during shock If the patient is lying in a large puddle of water If the patient has a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), providing the AED pads are not placed directly over the device
