83% answer correctly

administer 3 sequential (stacked) shocks at 200J (biphasic defibrillator)
administer 3 sequential (stacked) shocks at 360J (monophasic defibrillator)
perform endotracheal intubation; administer 100 % oxygen
prepare to give epinephrine 1 mg IV
prepare to give amiodarone 300 mg IV
