EMS REA Flashcard Quiz1

Q-1You arrive, to find a 48-year-old male, complainingthat his chest feels heavy. The patient is awake andtalking to you. During your assessment you notethat his skin is pa]e, coo], and clammy. Your :firststep, is to(A) apply your AEU.(B) administer supplern.ental oxygen.( C) obtain a medical history.(D) assist the patient in taking his neighbor1snitroglycerin..

(B) Your first step is to administer supplementaloxygen. When treating chest pain it is important toget oxygen to the patient as soon as possible to helpalleviate damage to the heart muscle.

Q-2Which of the following is the correct flow of bloodthrough the, heart and ]ungs?(A) inferior/superior vena cavae, lungs, rightatrium, left atrium, right ventric]e, leftventricle, aorta(B) inferior/superior vena cavae, left atrium, leftventricle, lungs, right atrium, left ventricle,aorta(C) inferior/superior vena cavae, lungs, aorta, leftatrium, ]eft ventricle, right atrium, left venttic]e(D) inferior/superio,r vena cavae, right atrium, rightventricle, ]ungs, left atrium., left ventricle, aorta.

(D) The blood returns from the body to the, heartthrough the inferior/ superior vena cav.ae, to theright atrium, to the right ventricle. It then goesthrough the pulmonary artery to the ]ungs and isoxyg,enatedM From there it returns to the ]eft atriumthrough the pulmonary vein. From the left atriumit goes to the left ventricle and back out to the bodythrough the aorta.

Q-3The mitral or bicuspid valve(A) prevents the blood from backflowing into theLeft atrium.(B) prevents the blood from backflowing · nto theright atrium.(C) prevents the blood from backflowing into thelungs .(D) is located between the left atrium and the rightventricle.

(A) The mitral or bicuspid valv,e is located betweenthe le.ft atrium and the left ventricle. It prevents theblood from backtlowing into the left atrium.

Q-4The, electrical impulse gen,erated 1n the rightatrium is called the(A) atrioventricular node.(B) purkinje fibers.(C) sinoatrial node.(D) bundle of Hi.s.

(C.) The electrical impulse generated at the rightatrium is the sinoatria] node (SA node). It travelsthrough both atria.; causing both to contractsimultaneously, which propels the blood to theventricles.
