This patient has heart failure with pulmonary edema. In pulmonary edema, fluid collects in the lungs, which can cause:
Severe shortness of breath
Low oxygen levels
Respiratory distress
Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)
Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) Rescue 1122 Current & Past Solved Papers have uploaded in this portion of ETEST Academy’s Website. All EMT Rescue 1122 MCQs as well as trade related MCQs are included in this portion.This section is most helpful for all candidates of Emergency Medical Technician EMT Rescue 1122.
Which is a characteristic feature of hyaline cartilage?
- It is avascular (lacks blood vessels)
- It is avascular (lacks blood vessels)
- It is highly innervated
- It resist calcification throughout
- a
-
Hyaline Cartilage is found in Nose, Trachea, Articular Surface of Joints and Coastal Cartilages.
It provides smooth surfaces for joint movement and structural support.
When using an AED, you should ensure:
- No one is touching the patient during rhythm analysis and shock delivery
- The patient is on a metal surface
- Chest compression continue while the AED is charging
- The patient chest is wet to improve condition
- a
-
If someone is touching the patient, the electrical shock could pass to them and cause injury. It can also interfere with the AED’s rhythm analysis.
When controlling severe external hemorrhage, your first step is to:
- Apply direct pressure with a sterile dressing
- Evaluate the extremity
- Check distal pulses
- Apply a tourniquet proximal to the wound

Apply Direct Pressure
Use Tourniquet
Elevation
Pressure points
Cold Application
Wound Closure
Homeostatic Dressing
Devices used for immobilization in orthopedic care include:
- Splints
- Traction System
- Braces
- All of these
- d
-
Immobilization stabilizes injured bones or joints, prevents further damage, reduces pain, and promotes proper healing.
A Traction System is a medical device used in orthopaedic care to pull and hold a fractured bone or injured limb in the correct position using a steady pulling force.
Regarding acute tissue injuries like sprains, cryotheraphy (cold application) is:
- Less effective than heat initially
- Only useful for pain relief
- The recommended treatment within the first 24-48 hours
- Contradicted for burns
- c
-
Cryotheraphy is use of cold to reduce inflammation, swelling and pain in acute injuries such as sprain, strains and contusions.
Acute injuries are injuries that happen suddenly because of an accident or a specific event.
Ice plays important role in the first 24-48 hours for acute injuries.
The three essential elements of the Fire Triangle are:
- Fuel, Heat and Oxygen
- Flame, High Temperature and Air
- Combustion Material, Spark and Nitrogen
- Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide and Fuel
- a
-
If one element of the fire removed, fire stops.
Removing of these elements defines three methods to stop the fire, which are:
Cooling (Removing Heat by Water)
Smothering (Removing Oxygen by CO2, Foam etc)
Starvation (Removing fuel by cut off Supply)
For a Class C fire, involving energized electric equipment, the appropriate extinguisher is:
- Water Based
- Carbon Dioxide and Dry Powder
- Wet Chemical
- Foam Based
- b
-
First disconnect the power supply if safe, then use CO₂ or Dry Powder extinguisher.
Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) and Dry Chemical Powder are non-conductors of electricity.
Water conducts electricity and can spread the fire.
Plastic burn is A class Fire.
Oil burning is B class Fire.
The primary purpose of urban search and rescue to:
- Restore utility services
- Locate and provide aid to people in immediate danger
- Provide definitive medical care on site
- Control public crowd

-
USAR stands for Urban Search and Rescue.
Priority is given to victims in immediate danger.
USAR is used to search the traped victims, structural assessment, safe extrication and provision of basic medical support to stabilize the patient.
USAR teams provide BLS.
BLS stands for Basic Life Support.
A 4 years old patient in respiratory distress with a high pitched aspiratory sound, drizzling and tripod positioning. You suspect:
- Epiglottitis
- Asthma
- FBAO
- None of these
- a
-
This disease commonly effects children 2-7 years old.
Epiglottitis is a life-threatening airway emergency.
Epiglottitis is a serious and life-threatening condition in which the epiglottis (a small flap in the throat) becomes swollen and inflamed.
Common signs of Epiglottitis are high fever, difficulty in breathing, high pitched sound and drooling.
