An accident chain always contains the
1:problem
2:unsafe action
3:solution
4:witnesses
I think it is #3 solution..is this correct?
A common emergency is
1:shock
2:choking
3:cardiac arrest
4:ankle sprain
I pick #4 ankle sprain..Is this correct?
wouldnt choking be the common emergency?
I disagree on both. Is an ankle sprain really an emergency, as in life-threatening? And an accident chain doesn't always have an apparent solution, does it?
On my lesson,they have choking and cardiac arrest as answers and you can only pick one. Then I guess an unsafe action? Thank you
1. is unsafe action
You'll need to read your lesson carefully to see which of those two emergencies is most common.
Thank you, I will
I just did the test and got them all right...I did put sprained ankle...because it was a common emergency not a threatening one like the choking and the cardiac arrest.
For the first question, the correct answer is not #3 solution. An accident chain typically consists of the following elements:
1. Problem: Refers to the initiating event or the underlying issue that leads to the accident or incident. It is what triggers the chain of events.
2. Unsafe Action: This refers to the actions or behaviors that contribute to the accident. These can include unsafe practices, disregard for safety rules, or lack of following proper procedures.
In the given options, the correct answer would be #2 unsafe action. This is because the accident chain usually involves a series of unsafe actions that lead to an accident, rather than a solution.
Now, for the second question, the correct answer is not #4 ankle sprain. The list provided consists of potential medical emergencies, and ankle sprain is not typically considered a common emergency. It is a common injury, but it does not usually require immediate medical attention or constitute a medical emergency.
The correct answer would be #3 cardiac arrest. Cardiac arrest is a sudden loss of heart function, and it is considered a life-threatening medical emergency that requires immediate medical intervention such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation.
You're welcome.
I agree with Reed. A sprained ankle is not an emergency.
But I don't always agree with online schools' multiple choice answers.
