About this book

This book collects the previous-year theory questions of the DrNB Critical Care Medicine exit examination and answers each one as an exam-ready study note. Instead of hunting through old papers, you open a topic and find the question, the way it has been asked, and a complete answer to it.

The answers are point-wise and laid out the way they are written in the exam hall, so the same pages work for first reading, for revision and for writing practice. The set is bound in two volumes, which keeps each volume light enough to carry through the final year.

Subjects and topics covered

  • Respiratory failure, oxygen therapy and mechanical ventilation
  • Shock, haemodynamic monitoring and vasoactive drugs
  • Sepsis, ICU infections and antimicrobial use
  • ARDS and lung-protective ventilation
  • Acute kidney injury and renal replacement therapy in the ICU
  • Neurocritical care, sedation and analgesia
  • Poisoning, toxicology and metabolic emergencies
  • Cardiac arrest, resuscitation and critical care ethics
