What oxygen delivery system most reliably delivers a high (90% of greater) concentration of inspired oxygen to a 7-year-old child? Correct Answer: Nonrebreathing face mask
You are called to help treat an infant with severe symptomatic bradycardia (heart rate 66/min) associated with respiratory distress. Bradycardia persists despite establishment of an effective airway, oxygenation, and ventilation. There is no heart block present. What first drug should you administer? Correct Answer: *Epinephrine*
You are part of a team attempting to resuscitate a child with ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. You deliver 2 unsynchronized shocks. A team member established IO access, so you give a dose of epinephrine, 0.01 mg/kg IO. At next rhythm check, persistent ventricular fibrillation is present. You administer a 4-J/kg shock and resume CPR. What drug and dose should be administered next? Correct Answer: *Amiodarone 5 mg/kg IO*
- can be used for shock-refractory VF or pVT
Initial impression of a 2-year-old girl shows her to be alert with mild breathing difficulty during inspiration and pale skin color. On primary assessment, she makes high-pitched inspiratory sounds (mild stridor) when agitated; otherwise, her breathing is quiet. Her SpO2 is 92% on room air, and she has mild inspiratory intercostal retractions. Lung auscultation reveals transmitted upper airway sounds with adequate distal breath sounds bilaterally. Most appropriate initial intervention for this child? Correct Answer: *Humidified oxygen as tolerated*
