Solution

  1. The statement that is NOT true regarding distributive shock is A. Warm shock is characterized by cool, pale extremities. Warm shock is actually characterized by warm, flushed skin due to peripheral vasodilation.

  2. The assessment that is NOT included in the initial assessment is B. Cardiac arrest. The initial assessment typically includes Airway, Breathing, and Circulation (ABC), and Exposure (removing clothing to check for any signs of injury).

  3. Cardiac pacing should be administered to an individual with symptomatic bradycardia with a pulse in situation B. If the bradycardia is the result of a complete heart block or an abnormal sinus node function. This is because these conditions can cause a dangerously slow heart rate that may not respond to other treatments.
