What's a good book to study this material that is tested on the ITE and boards?

For pulmonary physiology I don't think you can do any better than West's Respiratory Physiology. It's short and to the point.

Any good Cardiac physiology books?

Any good physiology book. Guyton? Costanzo? There are good chapters in most good anesthesia books.

I don't find it as rocket science as respiratory, unless you want to know stuff at the level of m and h gates, in which case Boron should be your friend (although I haven't read it... yet).

There is also a highly rated Pathophysiology of Cardiac Disease book on Amazon. I would not buy a separate book just for cardiac physiology, but that's just me.
