Despite applying a jaw-thrust and placement of an oropharyngeal airway, they are unable to visualize chest rise and report that the BVM is difficult to squeeze. You should:* apply a head-tilt, chin lift maneuver contact ALS for alternative airway options insert a nasopharyngeal airway have a different EMT attempt the jaw thrust Which of the following conditions is likely to cause Kussmaul’s respirations?* Head trauma Hypoglycemia Seizure Aspirin overdose Your 11 month old patient initially presented with poor respiratory effort and a heart rate of 56. After 30 seconds of assisted ventilations with a BVM and high flow oxygen, he is still cyanotic centrally and his brachial pulse is measured at 50. You should* request ALS for an advanced airway initiate transport increase the flow of oxygen to the BVM begin chest compressions A 35 year old female patient reports painless bright red vaginal bleeding during her second pregnancy. She states she has missed some recent appointments but believes she is about 28 weeks gestation. There are no contractions or membrane rupture. You suspect:* placenta previa abruption placentae premature labor spontaneous abortion After application of a splint, your patient reports increased pain, numbness, and appears to have swelling of the digits distal to the splint. Distal pulses are still present. You should* expect increased pain as the patient begins to deal with their injury remove the splint and secure the extremity to the stretcher remove the splint, reassess, and reapply a splint leave the splint in place unless distal pulses become lost
