1

In a low-resource environment with limited personnel, how should nurses manage both CPR and AED setup effectively?

Begin AED setup only after two minutes of compressions
Assign clear roles so one person maintains compressions while another prepares the AED
Pause compressions to expedite AED pad placement
Alternate compressions and ventilation before considering the AED

2

After ROSC is achieved, which finding most reliably confirms improved perfusion?

Increase in end-tidal CO₂ and palpable carotid pulse
Improved skin color alone
Reduced muscle tone in the limbs
Bradycardia with low blood pressure

3

Which statement best reflects appropriate AED follow-up responsibilities?

Documentation is secondary to physical equipment cleaning
The AED should be stored as-is until biomedical staff inspect it
The nurse should reset, restock, and ensure the device is ready for the next use
AED maintenance is optional once ROSC is achieved

4

A nurse notices mild redness under the AED pad after ROSC. What is the correct response?

Ignore it since superficial erythema is common and self-limited
Apply a sterile dressing if deeper burns are present and document findings
Immediately reapply new pads to another location
Delay documentation until after transfer

5

Following a perioperative cardiac arrest with AED use, what best supports continuous quality improvement?

Conducting a structured team debrief about the resuscitation process
Waiting for a formal hospital audit before reflecting on performance
Relying solely on device memory for review
Avoiding discussion to prevent emotional distress among staff
