(a) Question : A 20-year-old male has a large laceration to his

wrist. He is holding a blood-soaked towel over the wound,

but it continues to bleed rapidly. You should:

• apply a tourniquet proximal to the wrist.
• administer high-flow supplemental oxygen.
• apply pressure to the brachial artery.
• wrap the towel with pressure bandages.

Correct Answer: A. apply a tourniquet proximal to the

wrist.

(b) Question : A 25-year-old unrestrained female struck the

steering wheel with her chest when her car hit a tree while traveling at a high rate of speed. She has signs and symptoms of shock, which you suspect are the result of intrathoracic bleeding. Which of the following interventions will provide this patient with the greatest chance for survival?

• Intravenous fluid administration
• High-flow oxygen administration
• Full immobilization of her spine

• Rapid transport to a trauma center

Correct Answer: D. Rapid transport to a trauma center

(c) Question : As you approach a patient lying at the side of

the roadway, you observe severe bleeding from the leg. What should your first action be?

• Administer oxygen.
• Check for a pulse.
• Open the airway.
• Control the bleeding.

Correct Answer: D. Control the bleeding

(d) Question : Distributive shock occurs when:

• widespread dilation of the blood vessels causes blood to

pool in the vascular beds.

• an injury causes restriction of the heart muscle and impairs

its pumping function.

• severe bleeding causes tachycardia in order to distribute

blood to the organs faster.

• temporary but severe vasodilation causes a decrease in

blood supply to the brain.

Correct Answer: A. widespread dilation of the blood vessels

causes blood to pool in the vascular beds.

(e) Question : Foods, medications, and insects are common

causes of ________.

• neurogenic shock
• psychogenic shock
• septic shock
• anaphylactic shock

Correct Answer: D. anaphylactic shock

(f) Question : Hypovolemic shock caused by severe burns is

the result of a loss of:

• red blood cells.
• whole blood.
• platelets.
• plasma.

Correct Answer: D. plasma.

(g) Question : In an acute injury setting, neurogenic shock is

commonly accompanied by:

• diaphoresis.
• tachycardia.
• hypovolemia.
• hypothermia.

Correct Answer: D. hypothermia

(h) Question : Inadequate circulation of blood throughout the

body is called ________.

• shock
• perfusion

• hypotension
• hypoxia

Correct Answer: A. shock

(i) Question : Pulmonary edema and impaired ventilation

occur during:

• septic shock.
• cardiogenic shock.
• neurogenic shock.
• anaphylactic shock.

Correct Answer: B. cardiogenic shock.

(j) Question : Shock due to severe infection is called

________.

• neurogenic shock
• septic shock
• hypovolemic shock
• anaphylactic shock

Correct Answer: B. septic shock

(k) Question : To protect vital organs, the body compensates

by directing blood flow away from organs that are more

tolerant of low flow, such as:

• the heart.
• the skin.
• the brain.
