18 Cardiology Mnemonics for Nurse
Practitioner Students
Cramming for exams? In my days as a nurse practitioner student, I employed several study tactics to
help memorize content for both the certification exam and my NP program finals. Hand made
flashcards littered my coffee table. Cheat sheets fell from dilapidated folders in my backpack. My
favorite study tactic to fall back on was thinking up (or borrowing) study mnemonics. If you're a nurse
practitioner student struggling to study for exams, these cardiac mnemonics just might prevent you
from having a finals-induced MI.
