NCLEX Cheat Sheet Your Paperless Flash Card Study Guide Hey there so before you dive right into the cheat sheet, just want to tell you what it’s going to be covering and give you a few pointers ... on how to study. First is I created a pharmacology table. I listed all the suffices of every medication as well as their rationale and common side effects. What I want you to do is continue studying in detail all the most common drugs that you’ve been taught will be on the NCLEX exam but also memorize these suffices so that way you know which rationale and side effects to associate them with. The NCLEX is not going to test you on the most common drugs, it’s going to test you on the least common drugs so unless you can memorize every single medication with their rationale and side effects, I suggest at least knowing all the suffices. Next thing is I’ll be covering all the most common tested illnesses, diseases and conditions. The exam is not going to ask you questions such as, “What is Pneumonia?” It’s going to ask you to APPLY what you know about these conditions in typical nursing scenarios. So don’t just memorize the signs and symptoms, understand them well enough to know how it is managed in the clinical setting. Additional things we will go over:  Nursing Procedures You Must Know  Standard Precautions and More  Fluid & Electrolyte Balance  IV Fluids  Rules (Nursing Wise)  ABGs  Key Nurse Role Differences  Restraints  Developmental Stages of Transition  Maternal Nursing  Mental Health  Therapeutic Communication Let’s Get Started!
