Main description:

The FFICM (Fellowship of the Faculty of Intensive Care
Medicine) examination is a new examination which was created to ensure that
successful candidates have attained recognisable national standards in the subject.
It is a compulsory qualification for any medic who wants to work in Intensive
Care Medicine.

The examination was held for the first time in
2012 and it takes place twice a year (in March and October). It is hoped that
2,000 candidates per annum will sit the exam once it is well established.

This new book is the first book on the market to cover the OSCE element of the
exam. It provides 4 whole examinations' worth of questions (13 per
examination), which cover all likely scenarios and subject areas that the
candidate is likely to encounter in the examination.

It is divided into two sections: the first section simply provides the
questions; in section 2 the questions are repeated and full answers are
supplied.
