REA’s EMT Basic Premium Edition Flashcard Book with CD

Hundreds of Must-Study Questions and Answers!

REA’s Flashcard book for the EMT-Basic exam helps students check their test-readiness before taking this crucial test. Our flashcard book is the perfect refresher and offers a quick and convenient way to practice answering questions. Written by an expert in the fire and EMS arenas, these flashcards give students full scenarios to evaluate in a multiple-choice format, just like the actual test.

This recommended study aid contains more than 300 must-study questions that cover all official test categories found on the EMT-Basic exam, including Airway & Breathing, Cardiology, Medical, Obstetrics & Pediatrics, and Trauma. Our handy icons help students locate questions by subject, so they can review and test their knowledge in specific areas. The book also includes fun facts about the medical/EMT profession and its history.

This Premium Edition with CD-ROM also contains four timed quizzes with detailed explanations of answers to challenge test-readiness. As an added bonus, we’ve also included four full-color anatomy charts covering:

* Anatomy & Physiology
* The Skeletal System
* The Cardiorespiratory System
* The Muscular System

Unlike most flashcards that come loose in a box, our flashcards are bound in an organized, portable book that makes studying a breeze. Students can write their answer on the front of the card, and then compare it to the answer on the back of the card. This concise question and answer format makes it easy to find the right answer, and we even give details explaining why the answer is correct.

Fully indexed for smarter study, this book is an indispensable asset for anyone preparing for the EMT-Basic test!

Passed the NREMT first try!

August 12, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I recently took a 6 week Fast Track EMT course during the summer with no prior medical background (not even a basic anatomy class). I purchased this book because I figured I could use all the help I could get since the class was moving at lightning speed. The teachers were all outstanding and willing to work with you, but you still had to put in work by studying. I purchased this book as an additional resource to aid in my studying. In my opinion this book is great because it is very portable as opposed to my 1400 page Brady hardcover textbook. I would take this book everywhere with me and review the questions during my downtime. I also appreciate the fact that the book explains it's rationale as to why each answer is correct. The CD was pretty useless in my opinion, however I am still pleased with this purchase. Don't expect to pass the NREMT by solely relying on this book, use this as a supplemental study aid in conjunction with your textbook and you will pass! 2 months ago I knew nothing about EMS, and now I am a certified EMT. If I can do it so can you... Good luck and study hard!

Great for National Registry prep

May 16, 2011

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book helped me out a ton in preparation for the EMT-b National Registry exam. For me, flashcards are the best way to study anyway so it's nice to have a book (which is well-priced) with 350 of them. I don't want to say this is the ONLY resource you need to prepare for the exam, but it's organized so well and the answer explanations are so detailed that it's the resource I kept coming back to. I think one would do well with studying just this book and their trouble subjects (i.e. trauma or peds) out of the actual EMT classroom book. It's what I did and I beat the test in 75 questions (second-attempt).

Excellent review book

January 15, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

The majority of questions in this book are scenario based, just like the NREMT exam and it provides a short explanation of each correct answer. The CD has good study material on it and the computer based quiz is good if you are not accustomed to taking computer tests. Other than a good intro to computer-based testing, the CD test isn't the greatest.

My EMT class (Cabell County EMS, WV - excellent program!) used the AAOS text, and I used this book along with the companion note guide EMT-Crash Course (ISBN 0-7386-1006-2) to prepare for my WV and National Registry exams. Passed both on my first try.

Excellent resource.

March 6, 2010

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I was very happy with this book. I went through the entire thing, found only about 2 questions whose answers I question. This goes fairly in-depth, but not extremely so. The questions are very straightforward, not confusing or misleading. I love having the answers on the next page. As far as what other reviewers said, I found all the rates, etc. to be right on according to current standards- my copy was copyrighted 2006, published 2010. As far as the charcoal issue that several others have mentioned, the correct answer is aDsorption, not aBsorption, which I checked and is medically correct ( : Definitely get this book- excellent resource. Also, it only took me about 2-3 hours to go through the entire thing- which I loved.

Best overall review tool for NREMT

April 26, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book provides some of the most accurate practice questions for the NREMT. Better than all of the other books out there, including cliffnotes review. Although it doesnt have a section to teach you material, it works very well. Highly recommended for anyone reviewing for NREMT or potential employment exam.
