Answer: When checking the scene safety for the use of an AED, the best scenario that describes the dangers and would stop a person from using the AED is; Flammable gases, patient lying in standing water, combustible liquids near the victim. The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
An AED is used in an emergency when someone is not breathing and needs to be rescuited. The machine turned on and pads are placed on the patient and the person using the machine must follow the prompts. Everyone should be away from the person and not touching the person when the machine sends a jolt of electricity to the person receiving the jolt. If the person is laying in water, or if there is gases or flammable liquid nearby, it could kill the person if they are in water and possibly have an explosion if there is flammable gases near.
