Crqs in Anaesthesia - Constructed Response Questions for Exams (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781910079799)

The Royal College of Anesthetists has introduced Constructed Response Questions (CRQs) as an innovative way of testing trainees, in the fields of anesthesia and intensive care medicine, in their final FRCA examinations from September 2019. CRQs are a more structured way of assessing knowledge and understanding; they also assess the application of knowledge, evaluation and judgement.

This book categorises questions based on the Royal College model, with six mandatory sections of training and two separate sections on general duties and optional units. It is an ideal companion for candidates who are preparing for their final exams in anesthesia and will help to assess their preparation and guide appropriate revision.

The topics are pertinent for other anesthetic exams worldwide, including the European exams, Australian and New Zealand fellowships and the Indian DNB exams. The authors have extensive experience in anesthetic teaching and lead anesthetic intermediate teaching in the UK, running regular and successfully attended courses.

This book will help candidates to adapt to the recent exam changes and revise in an efficient manner. It will not only be an invaluable educational resource for trainee anesthetists but also for practising anesthetists. Medical students and junior doctors, who are about to embark on a career in anesthesia or intensive care medicine, will also find the book to be a useful educational tool.
