Question 1
How should you manage a patient having a generalized tonic-clonic seizure?
Correct Answer:
Protect from injury, do not restrain, do not insert objects in mouth, clear surroundings, place on side after convulsions, monitor airway and breathing, transport
Explanation:
The main idea is to keep the person safe and ensure their airway remains open during and after the seizure. Don’t try to restrain their movements or put anything in their mouth; both can cause injury or obstruct the airway. Instead, gently clear nearby hazards, cradle the head to protect it, and loosen tight clothing around the neck. When the convulsions stop, turn the person onto their side with the chin gently lifted (the recovery position). This helps keep the airway clear and reduces the risk of aspiration if they vomit. Throughout, monitor for normal breathing and level of responsiveness, and be ready to provide airway support or rescue breathing if needed. After the seizure ends, reassess and transport to higher care if the seizure lasts longer than about five minutes, if the person has repeated seizures without regaining consciousness, or if there are injuries or other complicating factors (pregnancy, diabetes, head injury, etc.). Do not give anything by mouth during the seizure. Fluids or food should wait until the person is fully awake and able to swallow safely.
Question 2
How do the prefixes anti- and ante- differ?
Correct Answer:
anti means against and ante means before or forward
Explanation:
The idea being tested is how these prefixes convey meaning in opposite directions. Anti- expresses opposition or being against something. Ante- signals that something comes before or is in front of something else. So the best explanation is that anti means against and ante means before or in front of. Examples help: antibiotic opposes bacteria; ante meridiem refers to before noon; an antecedent is something that comes before. The other statements aren’t correct because these are distinct prefixes, not variants of the same one, and they are prefixes rather than suffixes.
Question 3
What is a best practice at a crime scene?
Correct Answer:
Do not cut clothing through or near bullet or stab wounds
Explanation:
Preserving evidence at a crime scene while you provide medical care is the main idea. Cutting clothing through or near bullet or stab wounds can destroy or contaminate trace evidence—blood, fibers, skin cells—that investigators rely on to understand what happened. By avoiding cuts through or near wounds, you help maintain the integrity of both the scene and the evidence it contains. If clothing must be removed or examined, do so under law enforcement direction and in a way that minimizes damage to evidence (often by cutting away from the wound). The other options conflict with proper crime-scene protocol: leaving objects on the floor can contaminate the scene, assuming you’re in charge disregards the role of police, and letting blood flow onto clothing destroys evidence and adds risk.
Question 4
Which sign is most reliable as an early indicator of shock in children?
Correct Answer:
Fever is an early sign.
Explanation:
In children, the body's first fix for reduced perfusion is to speed up the heart. This makes tachycardia the most reliable early sign of shock, because the heart is compensating to maintain blood flow to vital organs even while perfusion is dropping. Blood pressure tends to stay normal until late in the process, so hypotension is a late indicator and should not be relied on to catch shock early. Bounding pulses aren’t typical early signs of pediatric shock and can occur in other situations, while fever points to infection rather than being a direct early signal of shock. So an increasing heart rate, often with other clues like rapid breathing, cool/clammy skin, and slowed capillary refill, is the best early cue that a child may be going into shock.
Question 5
Under suspected anaphylaxis, epinephrine should be administered if authorized by protocol and trained.
Correct Answer:
Administer epinephrine if authorized and trained per protocol
Explanation:
In suspected anaphylaxis, the priority is to reverse the life-threatening airway and circulation changes as quickly as possible. Epinephrine is the key medicine because it rapidly tightens blood vessels to raise blood pressure, relaxes airway muscles to improve breathing, and reduces swelling that can block the airway. Because of how fast this can deteriorate, you administer epinephrine as soon as you suspect anaphylaxis if your protocol authorizes it and you’re trained to do so. This acts immediately to halt progression, giving time for additional care and transport. Relying on oxygen alone doesn’t address the underlying cause, and waiting for EMS can delay a critical intervention. Calling for help is important, but it doesn’t replace the need for the life-saving medication when you’re authorized to give it. If your protocol allows, give the epinephrine now, then continue to monitor the patient, provide supportive care, and arrange for further medical help.
