I had a test question in my peds class yesterday which read, " in management of cardiac arrest what should be the first procedure to perform? Possible answers where: A) Establishment of Airway, B)Chest Compressions, C) Defibrillation or D) Administration of IV adrenaline I chose Chest compressions and I was wrong :| My roomate- whose account I'm using is not home to help me and I am very confused:uhoh3: because @ my BLS class the instructor taught us to always do chest compressions first and claimed that it was the new AHA standards of CPR. Any help would be appreciated thank you in advance. :redpinkhe

I answered four years, but apparently that answer is wrong . I'm so confused now because I've looked and that seems to be the answer. The other possible answers were 28 days, 2 months or 15 months. Which is correct... :{

:clown:Hey everyone, my friends and I are a bit confused with this question. I hope someone out there can help. Question: A child choking on food becomes unconscious what do you do FIRST?

Which one is correct?

Hey everyone:nurse:, I was wondering how credible an online school like WGU is... I am thinking about applying for the Masters in Nursing Education online nursing program, but I don't want to invest time and money into this online university if it is not a highly respected degree. Has anyone attended/ hired WGU graduates?
