Intensive care medicine is a dynamic and evolving specialty,
requiring its practitioners to be part physician, physiologist and
anaesthetist. This requires a firm foundation of knowledge and an
ability to apply this to the clinical situation. This book contains
270 multiple choice questions allowing self-assessment of the
breadth of knowledge required of the modern intensivist. The book
is divided into three papers each consisting of 60 multiple true
false (MTF) and 30 single best answer (SBA) questions covering
areas including resuscitation, diagnosis, disease management, organ
support, and ethical and legal aspects of practice. The MTF
questions test factual knowledge and understanding of the evidence
base underpinning intensive care medicine, while the SBA questions
test the ability of the candidate to prioritise, compete options
and make the best decision for the patient. Each question is peer
reviewed and accompanied by concise and detailed explanatory notes
with references to guide further reading. All the authors are
practising intensive care physicians with first-hand experience of
professional examinations in the specialty. This book will appeal
to intensive care physicians approaching professional examinations
worldwide, including the European Diploma, American Board and
Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine examinations. In addition, it
will appeal to intensive care nurses and allied healthcare
professionals wishing to update their knowledge as part of
continuing professional development, and to physicians sitting
professional examinations in related specialties requiring
knowledge of intensive care medicine such as general medicine,
general surgery and anaesthesia. This book will complement the
existing international best-selling title "Multiple Choice
Questions in Intensive Care Medicine" (9781903378 649), also
written by Dr Steve Benington.
