Clinical Case Study: Cardiovascular

Compare your management of a hypothetical clinical scenario, in this case related to cardiology, with that of your peers.

Case studies bring together the essential strands of your professional study. They are the means through which you analyse a patient, their condition, the medicines they are taking and the impact that additional medicines have on their circumstances.

Case studies are what elevate your status from general student into prospective clinical professional. The more case studies you review, the more rounded your knowledge becomes. Your critical thinking skills become more refined and more focussed.
