In this episode, I continue our discussion of Neuro as relevant to the USMLE Step 1 Exam with a HY discussion of the ANS, somatic NS, neural crest/glial cells, and some HY pathologies/lesions. There are no attached slides as the clinical case scenarios are embedded with my discussion. I would definitely prioritize knowing the info in this podcast before you take your exam.
Given the fact that this podcast series is likely going to be used by M4’s/residents, I will start making the Step 3/ABIM/MITE series shorter so you can get in some studying if you have a 15-20 min break or have a drive to the hospital. In view of this, there will be many more podcasts for this series (and I will start making them more frequently). There are no attached slides. In this episode, I detail essentially everything you need to know about meningitis for these 3 exams. One important tidbit I forgot to mention is giving IV Dexamethasone about 15 mins before starting abx therapy if you suspect S. Pneumo as the offending organism. You do this for 4 days. There are no attached slides.
In this episode, I begin a discussion of Neuro as relevant to the USMLE Step 1 Exam. My ultimate goal is to cover all the HY info in FA. In this podcast, I discuss neuro embryology and some HY diseases. There are attached slides.
In this podcast, I discuss some general rules that will be especially useful for interns functioning on the floors in an internal medicine capacity. I would listen to this a few times before you start or while you’re in residency. I discuss a host of strategies that can increase your chances of having a banner intern year (and also avoid common pitfalls that place interns in trouble). There are no attached slides.
In this episode, I conclude our discussion of hematology and oncology as relevant to the USMLE Step 1. When taken together (Podcast 1-6) with the heme/onc pharm podcasts, you should have a complete review of the HY testable material relevant to the USMLE Step 1 from FA for the USMLE Step 1 2019 edition. There are no attached slides.
In this episode, I begin a series that has been requested by many listeners in the past. Basically, the goal is to pick HY topics from 7-10 USMLE disciplines and discuss them in mechanistic, presentation, and test taking detail after introduction as a clinical case. For example, this episode reviews nice amounts of heme-onc, micro, renal, pharm, biochem, psych, repro, derm, and other minor topics in a rapid revision format. If I get good feedback on this, I would consider making many more iterations of the series. There are no attached slides.
In this episode, I continue our discussion of Heme-Onc as relevant to the USMLE Step 1 with a focus on all the major anemias (with a few exceptions for the next podcast). I utilize multiple modalities to test the same concept as a means of encouraging retention. In view of this, there are attached slides with questions that you can follow through with as you listen to the audio file. There will be 1 more podcast targeted to Heme-Onc and that should conclude the series.
