Normal adult respiration is about 12-20 breaths per minute; newborns breathe much faster.

Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Ventricular contraction
Systolic pressure (the higher number) is measured during ventricular contraction, when blood is ejected into the arteries.
Q4Which action is the single most effective means of preventing the spread of infection in health care?

Hand hygiene (washing or alcohol-based rub) is recognized by the CDC as the most effective single measure to reduce health-care-associated infection.
Q5A sterile field is considered contaminated if which of the following occurs?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Any portion of the drape extends below table level
Any part of a sterile drape below table level is considered unsterile because it cannot be monitored; sterile fields must be kept above waist or table height and in view.
Q6Airborne precautions, such as for active tuberculosis, require which respiratory protection for the technologist?
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: A fitted N95 respirator
Airborne pathogens such as tuberculosis travel on small droplet nuclei, so a fit-tested N95 (or higher) respirator is required, not a surgical mask.
