NREMT Flashcards Basic

NREMT Flashcards designed for EMT's and ParaMedics preparing for the NREMT Exam.

NREMT Certification examinations are intended to evaluate the competence of EMS practitioners at a variety of levels: First Responder, EMT-Basic, EMT-Intermediate/85, Advanced EMT, EMT-Intermediate/99, and Paramedic.

The tests address content areas defined and validated by subject-matter experts, educators, and individuals working in EMS fields. As the tests provide only one source of information regarding examinee competence, they are used in conjunction with other indicators of training and experience in the granting of certification.

Taking the NREMT test or State EMT exam can be a painless experience if you are prepared with the
knowledge of the course material AND an understanding of what to expect of the NREMT test itself.

Over the years the NREMT exam format has changed from a linear exam (paper and pencil) to the CAT exam.
This is an adaptive exam and will vary in length. It is not graded like a traditional linear exam.

Technically, you should know everything that was covered in the EMT course materials. There aren't any
secret methods or insights that can replace proper test preparation, but some things are common. The tests are
heavy in the basics. Know CPR and shock as well as all of the segment categories of the test itself i.e. Airway,
Ventilation and Oxygenation; Trauma; Cardiology; Medical; and Operations. Know the major components of
the airway and the normal ranges of respiration for adults and pediatric patients. Know diabetic emergencies
and the various causes of syncope. You will see about 15% of your questions related to pediatrics, and about
85% related to adults.
