20 questions

Question 1: Is a patient's family history of chronic conditions listed under medical history in the Background section?

A. Yes

B. No

Explanation: The Background section specifies stating the patient's own 'Medical History: Chronic conditions the patient is treated for'. It does not mention including family history of chronic conditions.

Question 2: If a patient's SpO2 is measured at 92%, oxygen should not be administered via an oxygen mask.

A. Yes

B. No

Explanation: Oxygen should be administered via an oxygen mask for SpO2 below 95%. Since 92% is below 95%, oxygen should be administered.

Question 3: In the 'Assessment' example provided, ST elevations are present in the chest leads on the ECG.

A. Yes

B. No

Explanation: The 'Assessment' section of the study materials explicitly states: 'ST elevations are present in the chest leads on the ECG'.

Question 4: If a patient's respiratory rate is 22/min, oxygen should be administered via an oxygen mask.

A. Yes

B. No

Explanation: The study materials state that oxygen should be administered for SpO2 below 95%, not based on respiratory rate. While the example mentions a respiratory rate of 22/min, it does not link this value to oxygen administration.

Question 5: When therapy such as oxygen, fluids, or glucose has been given, it is necessary to report the patient's vital signs both before and after the treatment.

A. Yes

B. No

Explanation: The study materials explicitly state under the 'Assessment' section: '❗ Note: If therapy was given (O2, Fluids, Glucose), report values before and after treatment'.
