A rhythm that looks lethal cannot be artifact

A 15-year-old cross-country runner collapsed during practice in 90 degree Fahrenheit temperatures and 80 percent humidity. He responds only to painful stimuli, and has hot, flushed skin. You should first:

A) administer sips of cool water or sports drink. B) begin CPR if a radial pulse cannot be felt. C) cover the patient with ice. D) wet his skin and fan the patient aggressively.

Whether you are using a commercial device or a stick and triangular bandage as a tourniquet, it is important to remember that:

A. the tourniquet should be applied directly over a joint if possible because this provides better bleeding control. B. the tourniquet should only be removed at the hospital because bleeding may return if the tourniquet is released. C. you should try to control the bleeding by applying pressure to a proximal arterial pressure point first. D. bulky dressings should be securely applied over the tourniquet to further assist in controlling the bleeding.
