Check for a carotid pulse
Ventilate via BVM
Perform a head-tilt, chin-lift
Perform a modified jaw-thrust
Explanation / Answer
The answer is D. Attach an AED and follow prompts.
option A is impractical since the patient requires immediate respiration. Similarly removing from him padle is not easy and requires time which the 59 year will not be having to survive. Likewise chest compressions is not possible since the patient has to be laid down for efficient chest compressions.
So attaching an automated external defibrillators is the prompt and possible remedy.
Answer is B Apply direct pressure and recheck vital signs. This will allow closure of blood oozing opening.
Answer is A. Pancreas whic lies in the upper left quadrant
Answer is B because a single wound traverses multiple anatomical areas.
Answer is B Ventilate via BVM because the patient is snoring and it means airway is not clear.
