Pearson VUE sends your cognitive test to the NREMT for scoring electronically. Speak with your instructor or State EMS Office about the format and logistics of completing a state-approved Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) psychomotor exam. Tests differ by state, but general topics in which you must demonstrate proficiency include: patient assessment/management of a trauma patient, patient assessment/management of a medical patient, cardiac arrest management/AED, bag-valve-mask ventilation of an apneic patient, spinal immobilization (both seated and supine patient), long bone fracture immobilization, joint dislocation immobilization, traction splinting, bleeding control/shock management, upper airway adjuncts and suction, mouth-to-mouth ventilation with supplemental oxygen, and supplemental oxygen administration to a breathing patient.
Unlike the Cognitive, the NREMT Psychomotor is administered directly by state EMS offices or training institutions with state EMS oversight. The psychomotor exam is the practical skills assessment portion of the certification. If you fail any of the NREMT certification exams, you can retake the exam after 15 days. You can check your EMT test results at the NREMT website. The results of your NREMT tests are made available to you within 24 to 48 hours of your EMT examination. Medical Obstetrics & Gynecology: 27%-31%.Airway, Respiration & Ventilation: 8%-22%.The passing standard is defined by the ability to provide safe and effective entry level emergency medical care. In order to pass the exam, candidates must meet a standard level of competency. Items related to patient care are focused on adult and geriatric patients (85%) and pediatric patients (15%). The test covers the entire spectrum of EMS care including: Airway, Respiration & Ventilation Cardiology & Resuscitation Trauma Medical Obstetrics/Gynecology EMS Operations. You won’t know which questions these are ahead of time, so answer them all to the best of your ability. The cognitive exam is a computer based adaptive test, with between 70 and 120 multiple choice questions.Įach test includes 10 pilot questions, which are unscored and don’t count towards your final grade.
The NREMT Exam is composed of 2 different exams, the Cognitive and Psychomotor (skills) exams.
