12 multiple choice
0 / 1
while performing high - quality cpr on an adult, what action should you ensure is being accomplished?
allowing the chest to recoil to at least 1 inch
maintaining a compression rate of 90 to 120/min
placing hands on the upper third of the sternum
compressing to a depth of at least 2 inches

Explanation:

For the first question: When a victim with foreign - body airway obstruction becomes unresponsive, starting CPR (beginning with chest compressions) is the correct first action. Abdominal thrusts are for responsive choking victims. Back blows are not recommended as a first - line treatment for unresponsive choking in adults. Blind finger sweeps can push the foreign body further down.
For the second question: During high - quality CPR on an adult, the compression rate should be 100 - 120/min. The chest should recoil completely (not just 1 inch). Hands should be placed on the lower half of the sternum. Compression depth should be at least 2 inches (5 cm) but not more than 2.4 inches (6 cm).

Answer:

First question: Start CPR, beginning with chest compressions.
Second question: Maintaining a compression rate of 90 to 120/min (the correct rate is 100 - 120/min, but among the options given, this is the closest correct one in terms of the range).
