Description

This revised reprint is now updated to reflect the new 2005 emergency cardiac care guidelines. It offers a comprehensive review of all major subject areas covered by state and national EMT-Basic certification exams. This manual presents real-life cases or scenarios, including actual calls, and contains over 1,400 multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and true/false questions based on these cases. The questions are based on the objectives included in the U.S. Department of Transportation's EMT-B curriculum and not on any specific texts, making this a valuable resource for any EMT-Basic course. Reflects the new 2005 emergency cardiac care guidelines. Includes a CD-ROM with two multiple-choice practice tests to help students prepare for the National Registry exam. The practice tests are scored, and each correct answer is followed by a rationale to help students understand why it is correct. Features cases based on actual EMS calls, putting students in real-life situations for a more engaging and pertinent learning experience. Each case includes Plan of Action sections, giving students a chance to formulate a treatment plan based on the case, then compare the plan to the "suggested treatment" and rationale in the answer key. Includes answers with rationales at the end of each chapter, reinforcing key concepts and giving students instant feedback and an understanding of why an answer is correct. A test-taking tips section discusses techniques that work with a variety of learning styles and goes over time management techniques to help prepare students for their exam. The National Registry's EMT-Basic skill sheets are placed at the back of the manual for easy reference so students can review them before testing at the practical stations. · Reflects the new 2005 emergency cardiac care guidelines.
