Are you preparing for the Critical Care Pharmacy Specialty Certification Examination administered by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties? Now there’s an app for that! ACCP Flip Cards: Critical Care is a mobile app for smartphone and iOS devices. Combining the flash card experience with more than 250 patient care scenarios, this new app is a fun, fast, and simple way to prepare for specialty certification in critical care.

Items within Domain 1 (Clinical skills and therapeutic management) cover 10 disease-specific areas: Cardiovascular Critical Care, Hematology, Hepatic Failure/Gastrointestinal Disease and Endocrine Emergencies, Infectious Diseases, Neurocritical Care, Pulmonary, Renal, Toxicology, Special Populations, and Supportive Care. Other items provide coverage of topics in Domain 2 (Practice Administration and Development) and Domain 3 (Information Management and Education).

As in the version for pharmacotherapy, the ACCP Flip Cards: Critical Care features enhance self-testing and evaluation. Items can be viewed by domain or random shuffle; scoring statistics outline performance by topic; the favorites and notes features identify areas for further study; and a handy table allows quick access to reference values for common laboratory tests. Explained answers for each item assist learning and include 2–5 supporting references, each with a hyperlink to PubMed or other compiler.

ACCP Flip Cards: Critical Care combines the time-tested method of review by flashcard with your mobile device, creating an ideal resource for those who want a self-paced review and refresher of disease states and therapeutics. Look for it on the Apple App Store or on Google Play.
