| description | Internal Medicine (IM) is a
major posting for Bachelor of
medicine and Bachelor of Surgery
undergraduate program of Internal
Islamic University of Malaysia,
MBBS (IIUM). In clinical years,
the examinations for this posting
consists of theory and clinical
examinations. The clinical examinations consist of long and
short case examinations. This book is intended to serve
as a guide to the techniques and knowledge required for
short case examination in IM posting. Basically, there are
5 main areas that are covered, namely, cardiovascular,
respiratory, abdominal, neurological and other examinations
(covering endocrine and rheumatological examinations).
To familiarise students with the real examination settings,
in each clinical scenario, a series of questions are put
forth in the sequence of provisional and differential
diagnoses, relevant investigations, final diagnosis (after
the main investigation results are revealed), followed by
the principles of management. Since, the topics in IM are
very broad and at times seems notoriously complicated for
medical undergraduates, this guide book is designed as
a practical and simple reference. Indeed, it is intended to
concisely and comprehensively describe the relevant topics
in systematic, consistent and organized manners to help
medical undergraduates to learn effectively during their IM
postings. Importantly speaking, knowledge in basic medical
sciences that was taught in the pre-clinical years is crucial for
students to understand this book. Thus, thorough revisions
and understanding of anatomy, physiology, pathology and
many others pre-clinical subjects is vital. Ultimately, this
book requires clinical applications in real practice by the
readers in order for them to gain maximum benefits. |
