compressions.
The provider would interpret these findings as indicative of which condition? - Correct
Answer Respiratory failure

after how many minutes? - Correct Answer 2 minutes
compromise. From the assessment, the team identifies that the patient is in the earliest
stage of this condition. Which stage would this be? - Correct Answer Respiratory
distress
point in the waveform would the patient's ETCO2 level be measured? - Correct Answer
D

experiences respiratory arrest. The team intervenes, delivering ventilations via BVM
resuscitator. The team should provide ventilations at a rate of 1 ventilation: - Correct
Answer Every 6 seconds
using capnography and ID's the ETCO2 levels are initially 33mmHg and later 40mmHg.
From these readings, the team identifies that the patient is progressing in what stage of
respiratory compromise? - Correct Answer Respiratory distress

provider interprets this strip as indicating which arrhythmia? - Correct Answer Third
degree AV block
The healthcare team completes the necessary assessment & begins to care for the
patient, including initiating cardiac monitoring and pulse oximetry; providing
supplemental oxygen and ensuring adequate ventilation; and obtaining vascular access.
