Product Description:
Advanced Respiratory Therapist Exam Guide prepares readers for every testable subject on both the written registry and clinical simulations portions of the NBRC registry examination both requirements to be awarded the RRT (registered respiratory therapist) credential. This new edition has been revised to directly tie in with the most recent NBRC examination matrix and content outline. Each chapter includes content review, self-assessment questions, and study hints. In addition, each chapter has NBRC-type review questions with rationales explaining why answers are correct or incorrect. Difficulty Level Codes and Examination Matrix Coding are also included, better preparing readers for the examination. The accompanying CD-ROM provides a pretest and posttest, each modeled on the real NBRC examination to more closely represent the functionality of the actual computer-based exam. The CD-ROM also includes 10 Clinical Simulations, reflecting the number on the actual exam. The software for these simulations is designed to mimic that used on the actual NBRC Clinical Simulations examination, providing users the opportunity to practice this difficult portion of the registry exam.

I used this book along with some tapes from kettering and some practice simulations on the kettering website and I passed both parts of the RRT the first time. I think this book is a good review of what is on the test, but I don't recommend using this book alone.

This book provides an adequate review style outline for respiratory care. However, if you can only buy two books, I would recommend Persing's book, and the written registry exam review by Wojciechowski. I think this book was a waste of my money. Also, the CD-Rom doesn't work. Other options for practicing these exams include purchasing individual exams from www.goamp.com. They provide you with feed back, so you understand why your answer is wrong and another answer is the best choice.

I GOT THIS BOOK AND THE CD-ROM DIDN'T WORK SO I HAD TO HAVE A NEW ONE SENT. SECONDLY, THE CD-ROM DOES REPLICATE THE SIMS AND SCORES IT FOR YOU BUT DOESN'T TELL YOU WHY YOU PASSED OF FAILED THE SIM AND WHAT THE BETTER CHOICES COULD BE. SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY AND TIME AND GO TO KETTERING NATIONAL SEMINARS BECAUSE THIS BOOK IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.

Actually, I bought it for the hemodynamics. I found (and still find) the book to be quite helpful. The layout is very basic - just the listing of information. That almost put me to sleep occasionally because I do better with an outline style (I use this and a Persing review together and that's perfect for me). The illustrations and tables in the Sills are definitely among the better I've seen in these books.
