  • USMLE – What's It
    Purpose of this handout Congratulations on making it to Year 2 of medical school! You are that much closer to having your Doctor of Medicine degree. If you want to PRACTICE medicine, however, you have to be licensed, and in order to be licensed you must first pass all four United States Medical Licensing Exams. This book is intended as a starting point in your preparation for getting past the first hurdle, Step 1. It contains study tips, suggestions, resources, and advice. Please remember, however, that no single approach to studying is right for everyone. USMLE – What is it for? In order to become a licensed physician in the United States, individuals must pass a series of examinations conducted by the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME). These examinations are the United States Medical Licensing Examinations, or USMLE. Currently there are four separate exams which must be passed in order to be eligible for medical licensure: Step 1, usually taken after the completion of the second year of medical school; Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK), this is usually taken by December 31st of Year 4 Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS), this is usually be taken by December 31st of Year 4 Step 3, typically taken during the first (intern) year of post graduate training. Requirements other than passing all of the above mentioned steps for licensure in each state are set by each state’s medical licensing board. For example, each state board determines the maximum number of times that a person may take each Step exam and still remain eligible for licensure.

  • Thrombosis, Embolism, Infarction
    Thrombosis, Embolism and Infarction THROMBOSIS Thrombus formation (called Virchow's triad): (1) endothelial injury, (2) stasis or turbulent blood flow (3) hypercoagulability of the blood Endothelial Injury Endothelial injury is particularly important for thrombus formation in the heart or the arterial circulation, where the normally high flow rates might otherwise impede clotting by preventing platelet adhesion and washing out activated coagulation factors. Thus, thrombus formation within cardiac chambers (e.g., after endocardial injury due to myocardial infarction), over ulcerated plaques in atherosclerotic arteries, or at sites of traumatic or inflammatory vascular injury (vasculitis) is largely a consequence of endothelial cell injury. Endothelial Injury Physical loss of endothelium can lead to exposure of the subendothelial ECM, adhesion of platelets, release of tissue factor, and local depletion of PGI2 and plasminogen activators. However, it should be emphasized that endothelium need not be denuded or physically disrupted to contribute to the development of thrombosis; any perturbation in the dynamic balance of the prothombotic and antithrombotic activities of endothelium can influence local clotting events. Thus, dysfunctional endothelial cells can produce more procoagulant factors (e.g., platelet adhesion molecules, tissue factor, PAIs) or may synthesize less anticoagulant effectors (e.g., thrombomodulin, PGI2, t-PA). Endothelial dysfunction can be induced by a wide variety of insults, including hypertension, turbulent blood flow, bacterial endotoxins, radiation injury, metabolic abnormalities such as hypercholesterolemia. Alterations in Normal Blood Flow Turbulence contributes to arterial and cardiac thrombosis by causing endothelial injury or dysfunction, as well as by forming countercurrents and local pockets of stasis; stasis is a major contributor in the development of venous thrombi.

  • Aetiology of Deep Venous Thrombosis - Implications for Prophylaxis
    6 Aetiology of Deep Venous Thrombosis - Implications for Prophylaxis Paul S. Agutter and P. Colm Malone Theoretical Medicine and Biology Group, United Kingdom 1. Introduction Clinical research on deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and thromboembolism (VTE) has focused in recent years on the contributions of potentiating factors, alone and in combination, to the risk of contracting these conditions. Many such ‘risk factors’ have been identified (Geerts et al., 2004) and are discussed elsewhere in this book. The National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) in the United Kingdom has exploited this knowledge to make the prevention of DVT its main focus for 2011. In his keynote lecture introducing the policy and procedures adopted by NICE, Arya (2011) described the tools for evaluating risk in various patient groups and emphasised ‘anticoagulation’ in the design and implementation of evidence-based prophylactic measures. He claimed that the frequency of VTE in hospital patients should be reduced by 2/3 if the agreed protocols are followed. An achievement of that magnitude would be most welcome. Comparable views have been articulated elsewhere in Europe. Although NICE is distinctive in recommending assessment for thromboprophylaxis for all medical inpatients, the health services of other European Union countries offer broadly similar guidelines, especially for patients with acute medical conditions with expected durations of hospital stay longer than 3-4 days (Khoury et al., 2011). Similarly, in the USA, the Surgeon General issued a ‘Call to Action to Prevent Deep Venous Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism’ in 2008 (Sliwka & Fang, 2010), and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations requires prophylaxis for patients at moderate or high risk of VTE (Rothberg et al., 2010).

BACKGROUND Arterial thrombi underlie the clinical consequences of atherosclerosis and are not reliably detected by current noninvasive diagnostic techniques. METHODS Carotid thrombi were induced in swine (n ϭ 7) by arterial injury. Serial high-resolution in vivo MR images were obtained using black-blood T1-weighted (T1W) and T2-weighted (T2W) sequences in a clinical 1.5T MR system at 6 h, 1 day and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9 weeks. At each time point one animal was sacrificed and the occluded carotid artery processed for histopathology. Thrombus signal intensity (SI) was normalized to that of the adjacent muscle. Thrombus age was assessed based on MR appearance by two blinded independent observers. RESULTS Thrombus appearance and relative SI revealed characteristic temporal changes in multicontrast-weighted MR images, reflecting histologic changes in the composition.

  • THROMBOSIS by Geoffrey Hadfield, M.D., F.R.C.P
    THROMBOSIS by Geoffrey Hadfield, M.D., F.R.C.P. Sir William Collins Professor of Human and Comparative Pathology, Royal College of Surgeons of England THE CARDIOVASCULAR STREAM-BED has two arresting physical properties. The endothelial membrane which lines it possesses a high degree of smoothness which must very materially diminish the frictional resistance between the walls of the vessels and their contained blood. Equally obvious, but less frequently commented upon, is the exquisitely stream- lined construction of the complex pathway traversed by the flowing blood. This is planned to reduce obstruction to a minimum and to eliminate swirling, eddying, back-water formation and local stagnation. Any obstruction to the forward flow, especially in vessels in which the normal local velocity is low, carries the risk of stasis and, as blood in vivo clots when it ceases to move, we may take it that the preservation of the physical properties of the cardiovascular pathway is a natural safeguard against intravascular coagulation. It is abundantly clear that the smooth- ness and stream-lining of the vascular bed is frequently threatened in many different ways and it is most probable that some rapidly acting mechanism has been evolved to preserve its physical integrity. Fig. 1 illustrates some of the more simple conditions which, by producing physical abnormalities in the vascular walls, predispose to local stasis. Amongst these are external pressure producing internal bulging; local narrowing of a vessel from spasm, inflammation or degeneration; patho- logical dilatation ofa cardiac chamber or ofa blood vessel expanded into an aneurysmal sac; puckering, folding or corrugation from surrounding cicatrisation; valvular sclerosis and rigidity.
