A detailed syllabus has been developed and forms the foundation for the knowledge base for the JFIC Primary Examination. All questions are sourced directly from that syllabus and candidates should have a sound understanding of those topics, and confidence to express their understanding of the subject material in both written and oral form. The candidates should be able to integrate and express basic physiological and pharmacological principles as to how the relate to various scenarios relevant to Intensive Care practice. Candidates would find it valuable to develop strategies and standard formats to answer typical questions, eg compare and contrast the pharmacology of Drugs X and Y. Candidates are also strongly encouraged to use accurate and labelled figures and tables wherever possible to help display their knowledge and to describe basic principles.
