This examination is intended for physicians applying for DHA licensure under the professional title Specialist Critical Care Medicine.
Candidates should confirm that their postgraduate qualification, specialty training, professional experience, and licensing documents meet the applicable DHA Professional Qualification Requirements before scheduling the assessment.
| Official Exam Area | Main Preparation Focus |
|---|---|
| Pulmonary Diseases and Mechanical Ventilation | Respiratory failure, ventilator modes, oxygenation, airway pressure and ventilator complications |
| Infectious Diseases | Sepsis, septic shock, antimicrobial therapy, source control and ICU infections |
| Gastrointestinal Disorders | GI bleeding, acute liver failure, pancreatitis, nutrition and abdominal emergencies |
| Pharmacology and Toxicology | Sedation, analgesia, vasoactive drugs, poisoning and antidotes |
| Cardiovascular Diseases and Hemodynamics | Shock, cardiac failure, arrhythmias, invasive monitoring and hemodynamic support |
| Renal, Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders | Acute kidney injury, electrolyte disturbances, acid-base disorders and endocrine emergencies |
| Hematologic and Oncologic Disorders | Coagulopathy, transfusion, thrombosis, neutropenia and oncologic emergencies |
| Neurologic Disorders | Coma, seizures, stroke, intracranial pressure and brain-death assessment |
| Critical Care Radiology | Interpretation of ICU chest imaging, lines, tubes and urgent radiological findings |
| Obstetrics and Gynecology Disorders | Critical illness in pregnancy, hemorrhage, eclampsia and obstetric emergencies |
| Patient Safety, Professionalism and Ethics | Consent, communication, end-of-life care, error prevention and ethical ICU practice |
The DHA Critical Care Medicine Exam places significant emphasis on clinical application.
While foundational medical knowledge is important, many questions require you to interpret patient findings, analyze investigations, select appropriate treatments, and prioritize interventions for critically ill patients.
The May 2026 DHA guideline lists the following references:
• Principles of Critical Care
• Current Medical Diagnosis and Treatment
• Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine
• The ICU Book
• ICU Recall
• Professionalism and Ethics: Handbook for Residents
• Essentials of Patient Safety
Candidates should use current editions where available and study them according to the official DHA domains rather than attempting to read every reference from beginning to end.
Master Core Topics: Start with high yield areas like mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic monitoring and support, and sepsis management .
Study Pharmacology in Depth: Pay special attention to pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of drugs in critical patients, including vasopressors and antibiotics. Understand how critical illness alters drug absorption, distribution, and elimination .
Practice Clinical Scenarios: Regularly solve DHA style, scenario based MCQs. The exam tests clinical decision-making in complex situations, such as ventilator adjustments, managing septic shock, and diagnosing complications .
Take Timed Mock Exams: Simulate real exam conditions with full length timed practice tests (150 questions in 180 minutes) to build endurance and improve time management .
Use Performance Analytics: Identify weak areas through practice test performance insights and focus your studies accordingly.
Common mistakes include:
• Focusing only on mechanical ventilation
• Memorizing formulas without practising clinical interpretation
• Neglecting toxicology and obstetric emergencies
• Weak knowledge of shock differentiation
• Ignoring patient-safety and ethics questions
• Avoiding ABG and hemodynamic practice
• Studying only theory without completing timed MCQs
• Spending too much time on rare conditions while neglecting common ICU emergencies
