Knowledge that saves lives — test your emergency response and first aid expertise
Sudden cardiac arrest, choking, severe bleeding, burns, strokes, anaphylaxis — minutes matter, and correct first aid can double or triple survival. This quiz draws on current American Heart Association and Red Cross guidance, including hands-only CPR, tourniquet best practices, the 20-minute cool-water rule for burns, FAST stroke recognition, and epinephrine auto-injector use.
Each round presents 10 randomized questions from a pool of 50, with four multiple-choice options and instant feedback after every answer. Your final score comes with a performance tier and shareable results.
You'll cover CPR rate and depth, AED use, Heimlich maneuver, infant choking response, tourniquets and direct pressure, burn degrees and cooling, recovery position, anaphylaxis and EpiPen use, the FAST stroke mnemonic, hypothermia management, and spinal-injury precautions. This quiz is for education and does not replace formal training or medical advice.
Current AHA guidelines recommend chest compressions at 100-120 per minute, at a depth of about 2 inches (5 cm) for adults, allowing full chest recoil between compressions.
Modern guidance — shaped by lessons from Iraq and Afghanistan — recommends applying a commercial tourniquet (like a CAT) to a limb when life-threatening bleeding cannot be controlled by direct pressure.
Current best practice is to cool a burn under cool (not ice-cold) running water for 20 minutes — ideally within three hours of the injury. Avoid ice, butter, or toothpaste.
