Answer 1

Yes, Jamal should administer naloxone during cardiac arrest to a patient experiencing opioid overdose.

Naloxone is a medication that is referred to as an opioid antagonist and can reverse the effects by attaching to the opioid receptors. It is used in the case of opioid overuse and can quickly restore the breathing problems as well which may be caused by overdose of opioids.

It is used as a nasal spray or injectables into the skin and veins but has no effect on people with no opioids in their system. Although it cannot be surely used in case of cardiac arrest but can be given to patients having an overdose of opioids while in cardiac arrest.
