Book
Summary: "Clinical Capsules: Pulmonary System is a collection of clinical learning modules covering diseases and disorders of the lungs and respiratory system created for students to reference during rotations and preparation for taking Shelf and USMLE exams. Originally derived from Thieme’s authoritative German-language medical textbook content and digital learning platform, Via Medici, the modules have been translated and carefully adapted by 4th-year medical students and residents in the U.S. to fit the standards of practice in the U.S. health care system. Modules are templated and include Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, Signs and Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment for pulmonary diseases and disorders commonly tested on Shelf and USMLE exams. The modules are also useful for exam preparation, with concise overviews, learning and exam tips, and high-yield facts, and clinical rotation support, with links to key treatment guidelines and other information for each disease and disorder. Additionally, volumes are organized by organ system and specialty with regularly updated information supplemented by illustrations, diagrams, radiographic images, and tables." -- Provided by the publisher.
