Arab Board Emergency & Disaster Nursing Part 1 study plan

Compare the Emergency Severity Index with START and jumpSTART by assigning an acuity level and written rationale to three adult and three pediatric scenarios

Demonstrate the ABCDE primary survey by writing the assessment finding and immediate nursing action for five undifferentiated ED presentations

Calculate and interpret NEWS2, qSOFA, and shock index on eight sets of vital signs and state which value triggers escalation

Build a one-page triage decision aid listing vital-sign thresholds, high-risk chief complaints, and escalation triggers

Apply ESI levels 1 to 5 to 25 written vignettes within a self-imposed 60-second limit per case

Identify the five most common triage pitfalls, including undertriage of atypical presentations and crowding bias, and write one corrective action for each

Explain input-throughput-output overcrowding metrics and propose three nurse-led flow interventions for a 30-bay ED

Justify each assigned acuity level in two sentences that cite the discriminating assessment finding

Differentiate the mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery phases by sorting 12 given activities into the correct phase

Outline incident command system roles and write the span-of-control rationale for a 50-bed hospital receiving 40 casualties

Design a surge plan that expands a 20-bed ED to 45 beds, specifying the staff, supply, and space triggers for each tier

Sequence the decontamination steps for a chemical exposure and name the PPE level required at each step

Draft the after-action review agenda and the three data sources used to measure recovery-phase performance

Apply the primary and secondary survey to blunt and penetrating trauma vignettes, naming the life threat identified at each step

Classify burn depth and total body surface area using the rule of nines and the Lund-Browder chart for one adult and one child

Calculate Parkland and modified Brooke resuscitation volumes for three burn cases and adjust the plan for inhalation injury

State the indications and nursing priorities for massive transfusion protocol, tourniquet application, and pelvic binder placement

Interpret 25 twelve-lead ECG strips for STEMI, hyperkalemia, pulmonary embolism, and sodium-channel blocker toxicity, naming each finding in one sentence

Sequence nursing actions for adult cardiac arrest, unstable bradycardia, and unstable tachycardia according to current resuscitation algorithms

Differentiate asthma, COPD exacerbation, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, and anaphylaxis by assessment findings and first-line therapy

Set up and troubleshoot non-invasive ventilation and high-flow nasal cannula in two respiratory failure scenarios

Prioritize nursing interventions for acute ischemic stroke inside the thrombolytic window, including NIHSS scoring and blood pressure targets

Differentiate DKA, hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state, and hypoglycemia by laboratory pattern and write the fluid and insulin sequence for each

Recognize acute kidney injury with refractory hyperkalemia and state the indications for urgent dialysis

Apply a four-step decision framework to three ethics vignettes covering capacity, treatment refusal, and family-witnessed resuscitation

Explain the nurse's reporting duty for a medication error and a near miss within a just-culture framework

Prioritize maternal and fetal assessment for abruption, cord prolapse, eclampsia, and postpartum hemorrhage, stating the first three actions for each

Apply the pediatric assessment triangle and weight-based dosing to two pediatric resuscitation scenarios

Screen for suicide risk and acute agitation with a structured tool and describe the de-escalation sequence before restraint is considered

Match eight common toxidromes to their expected findings and antidotes

Outline isolation, notification, and post-exposure prophylaxis steps for a suspected measles or tuberculosis exposure in the ED

Complete two 100-item timed mock exams under exam conditions and log every incorrect item by domain and topic

Re-teach each missed topic in three written sentences to confirm the gap is closed

Rank all eight domains by missed-item density and allocate the final 48 study hours to the top two

Rehearse time management by finishing each mock with at least 10 minutes remaining
