Test on Basic First Aid and Human Digestion

Question 1: Blisters caused by a second-degree burn should not be punctured.

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The study materials state that second-degree burns are deep in the skin with blisters, and explicitly advise: 'Do not puncture the blisters.'

Question 2: When a person faints, their blood pressure is typically higher than normal.

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The study materials state that when a person faints, 'The blood pressure is lower.'

Question 3: According to the study materials, which characteristics are associated with an arterial bleed?

A. The bleeding is profuse and blood spurs out with the heart.

B. Blood gushes from the skin.

C. The blood circulation will fall rapidly, leading to shock.

D. It is a type of bleed that occurs with any wound.

Explanation: The study materials state that an arterial bleed is 'profuse and blood spurs out with the heart.' It also notes that 'The b. circulation will fall rapidly. Such big blood loss results in shock.' The option 'blood gushes from the skin' describes a venous bleed, and 'occurs with any wound' describes a capillary bleed.

Question 4: According to the study materials, which of the following statements about fractures and their first aid treatment are correct?

A. In an open fracture, pressure should never be applied directly on the exposed bone.

B. For a closed fracture, you should immobilize the bone with a splint or other available items.

C. Moving a person with a closed fracture is always recommended to seek medical attention faster.

D. Third-degree burns should be covered with sterile dressings and never have anything stuck removed from the skin.

Explanation: For an open fracture, the study materials state, 'Never apply a pressure on the bone.' For a closed fracture, it explicitly says, 'You should immobilize and get the bone in splint or stabilize with some things you have.' The materials also state, 'You shouldn't move with the person if there isn't danger,' making option 2 incorrect. Option 3 describes actions for severe burns, not fractures, although it contains correct first aid advice for those burns.

Question 5: Does the liver store the bile it produces?

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The study materials state that the liver produces bile, but it is stored in the gallbladder.
