Anybody passed CMC recently, any suggestions on review materials. Thanks

Specializes in MICU/SICU.

currently preparing for the cmc as well. plan to use Nicole Kupchik, AACN, and mometrix!

Nicole Kupchik!  AACN review questions/practice exam.

Any CCRN review material, focusing on the cardiac/pulmonary material is useful too. There’s a lot of overlap, but the CMC goes more in depth. 

Specializes in ICU.

I passed the CMC last year! I used the AACN booklet which was a saving grace and the questions were just like the one's they posted.

I also used Laura Gasparis's (sp) YouTube cardiology videos which were a great assistance, hearing her talk through each of the topics.

Key topics for the exam where:

CHF and treatment

Hemodynamics with their values 

How to treat abnormal Hemodynamics

Cardiac Tamponade Side Effects and Treatment

Pulmonary Embolism Treatment 

 

Hope this helps ?

Which AACN booklet? Seems like they don't offer any resources outside of their question bank for cmc specifically
