Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: The recovery position, lying on her side, mouth downward, chin up

It is best to position an unconscious casualty in the recovery position on their side. This prevents them from choking should they vomit. The mouth is positioned downward to allow for fluid to drain from the mouth, and the chin is tilted up to keep the airway open. Arms and legs are positioned to keep the body stable.

Answer: Apply pressure to the wound

It's best to apply pressure to the wound until the bleeding subsides. Deep cuts and gashes may require stitching, which should be performed by a medical professional.

Answer: Inject it into her thigh

The recommended place to give an epipen injection is the thigh. Epipens deliver a measured dose of epinephrine by means of injection to someone suffering from an anaphylactic allergic reaction.

4. After lunch, Calamity Claire decides to go for a swim in the river. Suddenly, you realise she's floating face down! You pull her out. She's unresponsive. You must open her airway. How?

Answer: Tilt her head back, open her mouth, look inside for obstructions

To open the airway, tilt the casualty's head back, open their mouth, and look for obstructions (food, vomit, false teeth, seaweed, etc.) If the obstruction is easily removable, sweep it out with your fingers, but avoid shoving your fingers down the victims throat.

5. In responses to all the panic and exhaustion of the day's events so far, you begin to feel dizzy and think you might faint. How should you position yourself, if you are sitting or lying down?

Answer: Lying down: on back, elevated legs; Sitting: lowered head to knees

Fainting is typically caused by a drop in blood pressure and can occur in response to standing for extended periods, extreme heat, exhaustion, medical condition, emotional distress, pain or fear. Elevating your legs (if you are lying down) can assist in restoring blood flow, and lowering your head (if you are sitting) can reduce dizziness.

6. Since Calamity Claire is not breathing and has no pulse, you decide to perform CPR. The CPR cycle typically consists of doing what to resuscitate a person?

Answer: 30 chest compressions, 2 breaths in their mouth

The recommended ratio of compressions to breaths for CPR is 30:2. If you do not wish to perform rescue breaths, hands-only CPR is acceptable. If it is not possible to breathe into the victims mouth, perhaps due to mouth injuries, you can give mouth-to-nose instead of mouth-to-mouth.

Answer: Move anything that may cause injury and monitor breathing

It is important not to restrain a person having a seizure. Instead, remove anything that may cause injury to the person and monitor their breathing. The method of putting a spoon on the person's tongue is not recommended by medical professionals.

8. The ambulance you called arrives, but accidentally runs over Calamity Claire's legs. Her right leg appears to be broken, so it must be kept in what position?

Answer: As still as possible

To prevent further injury, the leg must be kept as still as possible. Moving the leg could cause more damage, as well as being incredibly painful. Limited movement also aids in quicker recovery, hence the reason broken limbs are typically secured by a plaster cast or something similar.

9. The paramedics use a special device that delivers a shock to Calamity Claire in an attempt to restart her heart. What is this device called?

Answer: A defibrillator

Defibrillators deliver an electric current to the heart to help restart it. The two pads are placed on the front of the chest, above the right nipple and below the left breast area.

10. You visit Calamity Claire in the hospital. She is eating her dinner when suddenly she starts clutching at her throat and turning blue in the face. What is most likely wrong with her?

Answer: She is choking

She is most likely choking on her food. If I were you, I'd let the hospital staff deal with her this time.
