Question

if the aed prompts you to pause, what should you do? *
1 point
○ continue compressions until help arrives
○ remove the aed pads
○ stop compressions and follow prompts
○ turn off the aed to save battery

Explanation:

When an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) prompts to pause, the correct action is to stop compressions and follow the AED's prompts. Continuing compressions (option A) goes against the AED's instruction. Removing pads (option B) is unnecessary at this prompt, and turning off the AED (option D) is incorrect as the AED is still needed for potential defibrillation or further guidance.

Answer:

C. Stop compressions and follow prompts
