|
What is superior; inferior
In comparison with the chest, the neck is described

What is the patient vomiting
This might happen if you are ventilating too forcefully while performing rescue breathing
|
When would you use a nonrebreather mask
You would do this on a patient who is suspected of being hypoxic and is breathing adequately
|
What is a Tourniquet?
If direct pressure and pressure bandages do not
stop the bleeding, this could be used as a last resort |
What is Provide adequate oxygen
How does slow, deep breathing through the mouth
help a woman in labour? |
What is reproductive organs, the urinary bladder, the pelvic colon, and the rectum.
It is an organ found in the pelvic cavity
|
When the process of oxygen getting into the lungs,
exchanged into the blood, and getting to the body cells is disrupted
This is why breathing emergencies can be life-threatening:
|
What is Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
It is often referred to by its acronym, COPD
|
What is vital organs are not getting adequate oxgen rich blood
This is why Shock is life-threatening
|
What is Begin artificial ventilations
Do this if you you assess a newborn, and find a pulse of 90.
|
What is d)
Which of the following is one of the quadrants of
