Answer: C-A victim of a house fire, with or without known smoke inhalation, should be placed on a non-rebreather mask at 100% oxygen.

A non-rebreather delivers 100% oxygen to the patient until further assessment, such as ABGs, can be performed. Neither a nasal cannula nor venturi mask would provide adequate oxygenation to a house fire victim. If the patient is not breathing, they would need mechanical ventilation but this is not mentioned in this case scenario.
