La respuesta es la última (D): el pulso carotídeo.

Explicación de cada opción:

  • Femoral artery (arteria femoral): Aunque la arteria femoral es una opción viable para evaluar la eficacia de la RCP, especialmente en situaciones donde el acceso al cuello es difícil, no es la opción más comúnmente utilizada en un entorno de emergencia debido a su ubicación.

  • Dorsalis pedis artery (arteria dorsal del pie): Esta arteria se encuentra en el pie y no es adecuada para evaluar la eficacia de la RCP, ya que es más difícil de palpar y no proporciona una indicación rápida de la perfusión central.

  • Popliteal pulse (pulso poplíteo): Este pulso se encuentra detrás de la rodilla y, aunque puede ser útil en ciertas situaciones, no es práctico ni comúnmente utilizado en emergencias para evaluar la eficacia de la RCP.

  • Carotid pulse (pulso carotídeo): El pulso carotídeo es el más utilizado para evaluar la eficacia de la RCP en situaciones de emergencia. Se encuentra en el cuello y es fácilmente accesible, proporcionando una indicación rápida de la perfusión central.

En resumen, el pulso carotídeo es el más adecuado para evaluar la eficacia de la RCP en un entorno de emergencia debido a su accesibilidad y fiabilidad.

Question 1 A) Use the passage to answer the question. Which explicit statement is best supported by the details in the passage? (1 point) The passengers are horrified at the thought of resorting to cannibalism. Mr. Rogers speaks to express his dissatisfaction with being chosen by the committee. Mr. Rogers wants another candidate because Mr. Herrman has lost too much weight. The passengers oppose the candidates chosen by the committee. Cannibalism in the Cars by Mark Twain -A recess of half an hour was then taken, and some little caucusing followed. At the sound of the gavel the meeting reassembled, and the committee reported in favor of Messrs. George Ferguson of Kentucky, Lucien Herrman of Louisiana, and W. Messick of Colorado as candidates. The report was accepted. "MR. ROGERS of Missouri: 'Mr. President, - The report being properly before the House now, I move to amend it by substituting for the name of Mr. Herrman that of Mr. Lucius Harris of St. Louis, who is well and honorably known to us all. I do not wish to be understood as casting the least reflection upon the high character and standing of the gentleman from Louisiana-far from it. I respect and esteem him as much as any gentleman here present possibly can; but none of us can be blind to the fact that he has lost more flesh during the week that we have lain here than any among us-none of us can be blind to the fact that the committee has been derelict in its duty, either through negligence or a graver fault, in thus offering for our suffrages a gentleman who, however pure his own motives may be, has really less nutriment in him-
