I haven't personally taken that test, but the one I did have to take as part of nursing orientation included relatively simple things- none of that pesky converting grains into other measurements (seriously- does any single provider place orders in grains ever?). More like how would you program this pump to deliver this med as ordered? How much of this provided medication would you draw up to give the ordered does? How many vials of this med do you need to remove from the Pyxis to give this med?- this was the trickiest, as most people put how much would be drawn up and not the fact that you needed to remove 2 full vials from the Pyxis.

Hi sijuabrah, I am scheduled to take the next on Thursday and was wondering what was covered on the exam. What did you study? I only got called today so I am looking for some guidance/study tips since I don't have much time to prepare. Thank you!
