OH MY HEART!
This organ serves as the body's pump
The heart
Tapping on someone's shoulder and verbally trying to get their attention is a good way to assess this
Level of consciousness / alertness
This is the part of the chest that we perform chest compressions on
Center of the chest
Rescue breaths should be delivered over this period of time
1 second
This device delivers an electrical shock to restore the heart's normal contractions
AED
When the normal electrical impulses in the heart cause it to beat too quickly, inefficiently, or in an unsynchronized manner, this condition will occur
Sudden Cardiac Arrest
This position assists an unconscious person in keeping their airway open by using gravity
Recovery position
This is the rate of compressions we aim to perform during CPR
100-120 bpm
This circumstance is one of the few times when rescue breaths should be delivered first
Drowning
This crab is harvested in Birch Bay during the late summer, early fall
Dungeness crab
These two organs are the most sensitive to cardiac arrest
The brain and the heart
This is the most important part of the assessment
Scene safety
This is the depth we aim to achieve for compressions during CPR
At least 2"
This part of the body can obstruct the airway if a person is unconscious
The tongue
This law generally applies in an emergency to any person who voluntarily comes to the aid of an ill or injured person, and acts as an ordinarily, reasonably prudent person would have acted under the same or similar circumstances
The Good Samaritan Law
The immediate treatment for SCA
CPR
We assess breathing for no longer than this time period
10 seconds
This portion of the chest compression allows the heart to refill with blood
This maneuver opens up the airway for rescue breaths
Head tilt, chin lift
Before providing care in an emergency, you must obtain this from the person
Consent
The most effective way to end life-threatening heart rhythms
Defibrillation
This artery is the most common place where we assess for a pulse
Carotid artery
The primary influence on survival from cardiac arrest
High quality CPR
Room air is comprised of this percentage of oxygen
21%
The quivering of the heart muscle is often referred to as this
Fibrillation
