Physiology

My name is Armando! I am not a doctor or professor, I am a student. I make these videos cause I enjoy art and science. I hope you enjoy them!  

This presentation describes the basic cardiovascular examination. It is suitable for students in their early clinical years but may also be appropriate for students in their final year as revision for their OSCEs or students returning to clinical medicine.  

Document covering some key aspects of endocrinology  

Check out this video on the physiological process of hemostasis including platelet plug formation and about the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways.  

Understand what the thyroid and parathyroid do and get to grips with calcium homeostasis.  

This tutorial explores the function of the nephron, in particular: Filtration, Reabsorption, Secretion and Excretion.

Hormone Map schematic. Looks a bit over whelming at first and may require some color coding by you for mechanisms of action (Gq, cAMP, IP3/DAG, etc..), but proved useful for Exam time.  

Slideshow covering adrenal function  

Excellent explanations and artwork used to illustrate the workings of the digestive system.  

The Major Cord: A very brief introduction to the anatomy of the spinal cord with points of clinical relevance.  

Mind Mapping serves as a way to help students move away from the traditional approach of diving into fine details and losing sight of the big picture.  

 

An image of both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of the clotting cascade including the interactions between the two and other finer details.  

This is a diagram I created to summarise the immune response, complete with friendly, loveable cartoon immune cells designed in an attempt to make what can be a very complicated and confusing subject seem a little less threatening. The students I taught the subject to loved the "cute" summary format and found immunology to be a much more approachable revision topic as a result! Since this image has been so popular with all you lovely people, I have also written a comprehensive article on the immune response - complete with lots of illustrations - which is available here on Geeky Medics: http://geekymedics.com/2014/07/02/immune-response/ Enjoy and good luck!  

Easy to Understand!
