Heart Sounds MP3

How good are you at distinguishing heart sounds? Have you even any idea what I’m talking about? This collection of MP3s is very useful for second and third year students, great exposure for first years and an excellent refreshers’ course for the rest.

Clinical Skills Videos

Admittedly, clinical skills of Russian grads are not entirely on par with medical students around the world. It’s time we did something about it and brushed up on the skills that we need to use everyday.

Here are a few videos on clinical examination, divided into systems. Then following that, a few videos on taking blood, introducing an IV cannula and other clinical procedures.

The Cardiovascular System
The Respiratory System
The GI System
The Cranial Nerves
Neurological Examination of the Upper Limbs
Neurological Examination of the Lower Limbs
Hands and Wrists
The Shoulders
The Knees
The Ankles and Feet

Phlebotomy (Taking blood)
Introducing an IV cannula
Arterial Blood Gas
Catheterisation – Male and Female

Basics of First Aid

Surgical Videos

It’s been a busy week for me. I’ve sourced the internet for some interesting, education videos. I finally found some and would like to share them with you. It’ll definitely come in handy for you guys to update yourselves on your clinical skills and will most likely teach you something you didn’t know that you didn’t know.

Basic Surgical Skills 26MB – A collection of 12 videos teaching you how to properly hold a forceps, how to hold a needle, how to tie surgical knots, instrument ties and how to perform simple surgical sutures.

Surgery Videos 121MB – A collection of videos expanding on how to tie surgical knots (two-handed, one-handed, right hand predominant), scrubbing and gowning.

New Books, More To Come

As medical students here in Moscow, we all know how difficult it is to get hold of decent study material and references. I’ve managed to find some and decided to share it with everyone. Spread the word. If you have any requests, please let me know in the comments.

That’s all for now. Still more to come. These books are either in PDF format requiring a PDF reader. Some are in CHM format and for that you’ll need a CHM reader. GIYF.

Welcome fresh 3rd Years

I’m sure you’re all quite excited to find MagicPalace. You can get most of your study material from this site. I’m also expanding it to supply all 4th and 5th year stuff so make sure to come back every year to check up on it.

I regret to inform you that for new 3rd years, the material on this site do no suffice because your syllabus has been renewed. There are new new control and colloquium questions for Pharmacology and Path Anat. So I suggest that you ask the current 4th years for help because they would have just done everything.

Happy studying!

Pharmaco Lecture notes for the 2nd Sem

This isn’t prepared by me, either. But requested to share with you guys. Enjoy!

Path Anat 2nd Sem Q&A

Hi guys,

Please to inform that the Q&A is prepared, finally. Thanks to Shu Shien and her groupmates. I haven’t proof-read all of them, but it’s nicely arranged by the current format.

Here it is: Path Anat 2nd Sem Q&A

Happy studying.

Got some help from you!

Thanks to Shu Shien, we’ve got some corrections/additional questions for the infamous Path Anat. While this subject is pretty dodgy, we’ve been dodging it alright. Thanks to seniors, and now you guys. So here are the contributions from Shu Shien:

Unit 8
Unit 9
Unit 10
Unit 12
Unit 13

Currently there is another (Unit 13) but she’s correcting. And I believe she’s got something else up her sleeve too… so watch out!

Thanks again.
