There are math calculations but many formulas are given to you with the question. Simply solve the equation and plug in the required numbers. The essential formulas are listed in the book appendix.

RN’s, RT(R)’s and CAAHEP approved CVT graduates can take CCI's registry exams for Cath (RCIS), Echo (RCS), and Vascular (RVS) immediately, if currently working in the field. They can skip this exam. However, most other technician candidates must pass two exams - the CV Science exam for which this book prepares you and your specialty registry exam.
