This is the most thorough book available to assist Paramedics in their preparation for National or Local Paramedic Certification Examinations. This self-test book covers all possible questions that any paramedic may be asked on any exam, requiring users to demonstrate knowledge of the material, and teaches better test taking skills. All questions adhere to the 1998 EMT-Paramedic National Standard Curriculum as set forth by the DOT, and for the 5/e have been revised to reflect the recommended changes published in the December 2005 American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care.
