1. After you determine that an adult victim is unresponsive, the next step is to call 9-1-1.

2. For all victims (adult, infant, child) needing CPR, give 30 compressions followed by two breaths

3. A sign of choking is that the victim is unable to speak or cough

4. The earlier defibrillation occurs, the better the victim’s chance of survival

5. Once you have opened the victim's airway with the head tilt-chin lift method, you can leave the airway and move on to other priorities

6. You are providing CPR to a patient in cardiac arrest. A bystander has used his cell phone to call 9-1-1 and now wishes to leave. In order to ensure that EMS arrives, the cell phone should stay with the victim

7. The built-in rhythm analysis in the AED determines whether a patient needs a shock.

8. You are performing CPR and the AED has just been attached and indicates a shockable rhythm. You should stop compressions and immediately shock the patient

9. You are providing CPR to a patient in cardiac arrest. The patient has a nitroglycerine patch where you want to put the electrodes. You should remove the patch and wipe off the area before proceeding
