ACLS Acute Stroke Care Practice Questions

Studying for Advanced Cardiac Life Support? Prepare for the Advanced Cardiac Life Support by practicing on the ACLS Acute Stroke Care questions provided below. The practice questions are derived from the ACLS provider handbook and adhere to the latest ILCOR and ECC guidelines.

1.CT scan interpretation should occur within how many minutes of arrival at the emergency department? *
2.What is the correct order of the eight Ds of stroke care? *
3.According to the Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Scale, a stroke is identified based on what three physical findings? *
4.How long does a patient typically have between the onset of symptoms for ischemic stroke to when fibrinolytic therapy needs to be initiated? *
5.How soon should a suspected stroke patient receive an order for a non-contrast CT scan after arriving at the emergency room? *
6.What is the most common form of stroke? *
7.How soon should a neurological assessment and CT scan be done in a suspected stroke patient after arriving in the emergency room? *
8.According to the ILCOR ACLS Provider Manual, fibrinolytic therapy may be given to patients that are a minimum of how many years of age? *
9.Anticoagulants are contraindicated for how many hours following the administration of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA)? *
10.Blood pressure should be carefully monitored for 2 hours after the starting recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) therapy. During this period, how often should blood pressure be assessed? *
