You find a person in a swimming pool. The victim appears to have had a cardiac arrest. You have an AED available. Which of these would be correct?

• You cannot use the AED.

• You cannot move the person out of the water, but you can use the AED.

• You cannot use the AED near a pool.

• You can pull the person out of the water, but you must wipe the chest before using the AED.

You are performing CPR on a victim when the AED arrives. The victim has a very hairy chest. Which of these is correct.

• The only option is to shave the patient. If you have no razor available, you cannot use the AED.

• Use can use the AED as usual. Even if the pads won't stick, the AED will deliver an effective shock.

• Place both pads on the side of the body, so the AED will be able to provide an effective shock.

• If you have 2 sets of pads, you can use the first set to adhere to the body hair, then rip the hair off. The second set can now be used.

If you have 3 rescuers available for a child victim, which of these is the best choice?

• 2 rescuers should alternate using the AED and giving breaths.

• 1 rescuer should do CPR while the others wait for EMS to arrive.

• 1 rescuer should do compressions while the 2nd does breaths. You don't use a third rescuer for a child.

• 2 rescuers should alternate doing compressions.

If you have 3 rescuers available for a child victim, why would 2 of them alternate compressions every two minutes?

• Because using one person to give breaths improves the effectiveness of the breathing.

• Because it's best for team dynamics.
