Now that it is not 2am anymore I think I would agree and say C. I wouldn't think that every inhaled poison would leave some mark. And as far as D, It would go from the lungs and eventually end up in the body so that doesnt make sense...
C is logical
We honestly didnt go over inhalation much while I was taking the classes. Now that I am out and have to take entry exams for certian companies in the area....psshhh..
I think I can safely rule out the entering into a building,
As far as the other three...its a toss up to me. But I am still a...
I am actually already licensed. The HW is gone, the questions I posted were questions from an entry test I had to take with a company. I wanted to get the correct answers, since my instructor was an idiot and obviously didn't lead me in the right direction for some of them.
But you would start...
You have been called for an elderly male patient who family state suddenly collapsed. On scene you find an 82 year old man lying on the garage floor. Assessment reveals him to be unresponsive and not breathing.
I am assuming that you would first check for a pulse before you apply the AED, but...
Which of the following statements made by an EMT indicating a safe and accurate understanding of inhalation poisonings?
A. Most Inhalation poisonings are easily identified by residue or burns around the patients mouth
B. It is probably safe for you to enter a scene of an inhalation...
Why would you be performing an initial assessment on a PT with blood coming from her ears and nose? I would of thought you get them out of the vehicle and get them on a board, and go because of suspected head injury.
You pull up on the scene of a single-car motor vehicle collision where Emergency Medical Responders (EMRs) are maintain in-line manual spinal stabilization on the 56-year-old driver who was unrestrained when she struck a tree at a high rate of speed. As you approach the vehicle, you note that...
A bad driving record is 2 speeding tickets, a stopping violation and a bad inspection sticker in 06, a speeding violation in 08, and an accident in 09.....
Keeping my finger crossed tho. I was young and stupid, accident..was ....an accident
Thanks for the response. I am probably going to use the Mass Protocalls.
In another note, I got an Email from OEMS thsi morning in response to my question:
I have prehospital care, but the vitals are different in each book
Looking to see if anyone can give me BP, RR, and pulse for an Infant, Child and adult out of the Emergency Care, published by Bradybooks.
Thanks
Ok I am about to take my exam on Friday.
I see several contradictions to BP, RR, and pulse, in the book I was issued during training, the emt-b test study guide, and Mass protocalls.
For an adult RR in my book it says 8-24. On the Mass protocalls it says an 18 yo adult should be at 16-20...
So in Mass that strap placement is not a critical? I wouldn't see why it would be, as long as the femur is supported and is not twisting about. I actually thought I failed CPR because I forgot to listen and feel. Looked but didn't assess breathing.
Thanks for the reply
I was just asking...
I have only had 2 threads total and the other one had nothing to do with this what so ever. furthermore, it doesnt matter if they opinions are irrelevant, I was asking for input. Its relevant to me. Maybe someone found themselves in the same situation. Its just curosity
