2. how many times should you compress a person’s chest who has no pulse before you breathe for them again? (1)
3. what is an aed? (1)
4. where is the aed located in our school? (1) (hint: i pointed it out to all of you on our day #1 tour)
5. what is the universal distress sign for choking? (1)
6. if the person can still speak, cough and breathe, you know that they have a --- blocked airways and you should encourage them to ---. (1)
7. total airway obstruction
8. assess the airway blockage
9. holler for help / call 911 for an ambulance.
10. if patient is conscious, encourage them to cough and give abdominal thrusts

make a fist with one of your hands and place the thumb side of
that fist in the belly button area, slightly above the belly button
and well below where the ribs meet. grasp your fist with the
other hand and press inward and upward with a sudden forceful thrust.

1. if unsuccessful, and choking person becomes unconscious, carefully support person to ground and begin cpr

you have already called 911
landmark and give 30 compressions
open mouth and look for obstruction -- if you can see it, try to remove it

Explanation:

These questions are about first - aid knowledge, including CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) steps, AED (Automated External Defibrillator) related questions, and choking first - aid. The subfield of Natural Science that best applies here is Medicine and Health, as these questions are centered around medical and health - related first - aid procedures.

For question 26: An AED, or Automated External Defibrillator, is a portable electronic device that can analyze the heart's rhythm and deliver an electric shock (defibrillation) to restore a normal heart rhythm in cases of sudden cardiac arrest.

For question 27: Since it's about the location of the AED in a specific school, and the hint says it was pointed out on a tour, the answer would be the specific location in the school (e.g., if it was in the main office, the answer would be "In the main office of the school").

For question 28: The universal distress sign for choking is a person clutching their throat with one or both hands (the "choking sign" or the Heimlich sign).

For question 29: If the person can still speak, cough, and breathe, they have a partial blocked airway, and you should encourage them to cough to try to dislodge the object causing the blockage.

For question 30: The steps are for dealing with total airway obstruction (choking with complete blockage). The steps are as listed: assess the airway blockage, call for help, encourage coughing and give abdominal thrusts if conscious, and start CPR if the person becomes unconscious.

Answer:

• 26. An AED (Automated External Defibrillator) is a portable device that analyzes heart rhythm and can deliver an electric shock to restore normal heart rhythm in sudden cardiac arrest cases.
• 27. (Depends on the school's AED location, e.g., "In the school's main office")
• 28. Clutching the throat with one or both hands (the choking/Heimlich sign)
• 29. partial; cough
• 30. The steps are for managing total airway obstruction: assess blockage, call for help, encourage coughing and give abdominal thrusts (if conscious), start CPR (if unconscious)
