To develop a better "intermediate" level of certification between the EMT-Basic and EMT-Paramedic, the Department of Transportation created the EMT-Intermediate curriculum. The function of the EMT-I is to provide basic and advanced life support medical and traumatic emergencies. Whether being used in preparation for National Registry, regional, state or city examinations, EMT-I PreTest serves as the idealinstrument for self-assessment and review. 420 multiple-choice questions in exam format have correct answers with detailed rationales referenced to current textbooks. The organization of the book follows the National Standard Curriculum for the EMT-I, and includes coverageof body systems; patient assessment and initial management; airway management; assessment and management of shock; pharmacology; trauma, cardiac, and medical emergencies; pediatric emergencies, and much more.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Good Coverage,
This review is from: EMT-Intermediate: Pretest Self-Assessment and Review (Paperback)
This book provides very good coverage of all the aspects of the National Curriculum for the EMT-I curriculum. It focuses more on the 1994 curriculum than on the 1999, but there are a lot of good questions concerning the new cardiac protocols for the EMT-I. Many of the questions are rather confusing, and some make little sense. But, they are good preparation for some of the confusing questions that are on the National written test. Overall I was fairly happy with this book as a review tool
