I have now added a section for new doctors - once you have qualified you can still benefit from articles on the site on such topics as completing your portfolio and practical skills such as defusing anger in the workplace.


Recently updated work includes:

Schizophrenia (Alan McLeod, Feb 2012)
 The Psychiatric History (Alan McLeod, Updated Feb '12)
 The Mental State Exam (Alan McLeod, Updated Feb '12)



Request
To make this work I need new contributors. I can no longer do it all myself. If you submit something then you get your name up as a contributor and it looks great on your CV. It is also (astonishingly) quite good fun...



Some things I'd like...
Heart Failure (including BNP as a measure)
Cardio (quick revision notes)
Pacing (a guide to pacemakers - short)
Psoriasis

New files (added in the last month or so) are now marked with  (or NEW for those a month or so old)
HTML files are identified with 
other files will be either .ppt or .doc

Donations

The site is on a pay-server. Consequently I have decided to give people the option of making a donation to the upkeep of the site - this is done by PayPal so is secure. PayPal take about 25p from each donation.

Please note: This site is (and will remain) FREE - there is absolutely no obligation to give me any money. Having said that, donations are gratefully received and will help offset my own costs and perhaps allow me to produce some new projects such as a set of exam DVDs that have been a long-term plan. 

Thanks for your use of this site.

Alan.

Integrated Basic Sciences Revision

The iBSc site is now up and running and has nine cases on it as well as an index to topics covered - I hope to add a question weekly to test points that often appear in these exams or are often missed on revision.

Please don't leave it to the last minute - I estimate each question will take about half an hour and you will gain the most by doing some reading around parts that are particularly weak in your answers.
