Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,2,3,4

When documenting this event in the medical record, the nurse will include the date and time the event occurred, any factors that precipitated the event, the length of time that the client was not breathing, and the client's response to rescue breathing. It is unnecessary to document the tasks that were assigned to the unlicensed assistive personnel during this event.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

The machine should be turned on and then the patches should be placed. Only after the patches are in place and the nurse has assured that no one is touching the client should the cable be plugged into the machine. The machine will begin analyzing the rhythm and deliver a shock as soon as the cables are connected.
