PALS Systematic Approach Algorithm Practice Questions

Studying for Pediatric Advanced Life Support? Prepare for the Pediatric Advanced Life Support by practicing on the PALS Systematic Approach Algorithm questions provided below. The practice questions are derived from the PALS provider handbook and adhere to the latest ILCOR and ECC guidelines.

1.What should be done once it has been determined that a child has no pulse? *
2.What should be done if it has been determined that a child is unresponsive, pulseless, and not Breathing. The emergency response system has already been activated. *
3.Which of the following three actions are part of the right branch of the PALS systematic approach algorithm? *
4.According to the ILCOR PALS systematic approach algorithm, what should be done if it is determined that a child is unresponsive or immediate intervention is needed? *
5.What is the appropriate intervention following activation of the emergency response system? *
6.Which of the following is not considered a simple measure for maintaining a patent airway? *
7.What is the threshold of abnormal respirations? This value applies to children of any age, where breathing rates beyond this value suggest the presence of a potentially serious problem. *
8.What is the primary objective of the airway assessment in the ABCDE model? *
9.Which of the following options are non-respiratory causes of tachypnea? *
10.Oxygenation is considered adequate if SpO2 levels are above or equal to what value while a child is breathing room air? *
