Neurological system (UTMB)

Where is pathophysio, the arrangements of these lessons are bad .i cant even understand and Osmosis is better

The lessons are not detaield just like the lessons i found online, i paid almost 300$ for this? are u kidding me? This is very bad lesson , lecturing, I dont even understand a little bit.

Dr. Joseph Alpert explains clearly what us, students, always miss by ourselves. Really great series of lectures!!!

Muy buena conferencia, haciendo un buen resumen del tema para un mejor entendimiento general

This lecture was informative and engaging. The speaker did an excellent job of presenting the material in a clear and concise manner, making it easy to understand.

Excellent review of topic, covers essential points and gives key factors of treatment

Dr Carlo Raj always makes me interested in listening to the lectures at all time. He is always Clear. thank You Dr. Raj

lack of structure just got messy. it can be done in a much better way to follow the different pathways

Wonderful Professor! Love the humor and colorful presentations. Thank you!

Concise and chronological order appreciated. Fleshes out the details instead of alluding to another video that explains it.

When I pass my neurology block next week, I’ll be sure to come back and thank Dr. Raj. If it weren’t for him, I’d still be lost and confused.

Every lecture should be done like that ! Thank you very much doctor !

I like Dr Raj. He is so funny and manages to make me remember many things!

Great lecture just like all of his lectures. He is always very engaging.

excellent list about the factors that increase the risk of haemorrhagic stroke. Good explanation.

Excellent case vignettes.Really made me think analytically about the types of medications.

there was insufficient information in lecture and its hard to understand him

Clear explanation thats easy to understand, helps improve the basic current medication you can find in many patients with this desease.

he is just excellent shame, I can't recommend anybody else except him.

HE IS JUST THE BEST TEACHER THAT LECTURIO HAS EVER HAD IN HISTORY

I liked it very much, thanks for sharing your knowledge

It is clear, well explained and very useful. Totally recommended.

It's has really been great and productive except I had to go check Neuroanatomy because I am not yet well conversant with Neuroanatomy. I don't know how I can really grasp it! Anyway I really recommend it to anyone in love with science, particularly medical knowledge. Thanks to the team that made the lectures interesting! More importantly, thanks for the 7 days access, I could not afford to pay. I humbled and indebted by the kind hearts!

Dr Raj is literally one of the best lecturers i know of

Great stuff! Used lecturio before and after my exam. They have been constantly improving

Already taken the step but these are great review lectures to keep the knowledge fresh. Appreciate the lectures Dr Raj!

Dr. Raj is fun to listen to I love his excitement and personal stories.

It was really Informative, well explained, enthusiastic, just great!!! Keep up the good work

Dr. Alpert provides such a clear & concise overview about high-yield diagnosis & management strategies! Thank you for creating this very helpful lecture series!

An important topic for the sheer number of children affected. Thanks!

Good lecture, a topic that I was not very familiar with. Thanks!

Good lecture, it's important that it is part of the curriculum as I thought it was an adult disease. Thanks!

It is a beat extensive especially covering the anti-seizure medications and their side effects . Touching basic principles in the therapeutics including in pregnancy

The presenter is knowledgeable about the subject and presents the topic in an easy to understand and interesting manner!

The content is amazing except when talking about "Clasp Knife" and "Cog Wheel" rigidity I would also recommend pointing at picture especially when talking about "lewis body" Thank you

everything is explained really well. everyone makes mistakes and so despite the one mistake it is really informative and consice. Dr Raj's videos are really good

Not very clear Attending having language barrier Felt like he was reading it off and didn’t have good grasp.

I'm very grateful for these lectures, they are fascinating and short, everything we need for the exam!

very good, complete and simple to understand, i liked this lectures a lot.

Very good and clearly lecture, i am happy to understand it by one easy and complete way.

Dr. Raj’s lectures have been very helpful to me in understanding complex concepts. Thank you

I understand stroke syndromes for the first time without feeling that it was a very complex concept

Carlo Raj simply read the slides, he could've said so much more about this important topic...

Great instructor, he is extremely thorough, efficient, and gives high yield information.

The speaker does not explain anything. He just names random stuff and says it is important.

Not clear. Not pointing at images. To many updates and glitches.

I enjoyed learning about this very much. I also liked how Dr. Carlo Raj explained everything. I am not a medical student, but I am a high school student and hope to learn a lot more about neurology

i was reading the reviews and there is a big mistake, this lecture it's a resume, it can't be your only source of information, so don't cry about it and use it with your books.

Dr Carlo Raj has a unique way of telling you the important stuff. Also the summary in the end of every great

Great blend between science and art. Wonderful anecdotes in this episode. I loved the personal touch Dr Warriner used. I am inspired to become an anesthesiologist when I graduate.

This course helps me broaden my knowledge and I can put what I have learned into practice right after learning this lecture! Easy to grasp the ideas of the course!

I particularly liked the Nigrovic Rules and the considerations regarding the long-term complications.

I particularly liked the differences regarding the age with the key features highlighted and the comments regarding the CSF values.

He explains things really well, the repititon means I remember what he is saying, and his jokes do aswell. very clear and concise.

Very good explanation of the steps and mindset to have in case of seizures. Clear explanation of the 3 anti-seizure medication.

If you are going to go into haemorrhages and this is Anatomy the different layers of the meninges should at least be mentioned.

Hard topic, but the systematic approach is very helpful. He is a great at pointing out the relevant information about each of the topics. Everytime I see he is the teacher I know I'll not be losing my time.

The teacher seems passionate and sounds knowledgeable He teaches in an understandable manner.

Reviewing for my NP certification and this is an excellent resource.

Great lecture! I learned tons. It shows that the instructor masters the topic and is able to give a clear and easy-to-understand picture. I now feel much more confident for these situations and more able to integrate the local guidelines now that I understand better the general concepts. Thanks!

Manifold information was expressed pretty clearly, making me grasp almost the necessary knowledge of Intracranial hemorrhage.

I have a difficult time understanding Dr. Raj' speech in these videos Charcot-Marie-Tooth was covered in little detail but was in an NBME question

Barely any information presented, very disappointing. I wish there was more explanation and more information about the treatment. A lot of things just arent getting mentioned

Carlo Raj is so good at explaining and keeping you alert and focused. He asks questions and is very funny! I learned a lot about the things that didn't stick in my normal classes. Super good course!!

It could have been more detailed and a bit more tied in with the basic neuro.

The video was very down to earth and easy to understand. Thank you

Great material and the table was just super fantastic. I would appreciate the Lecturio team makes an update to this video, describing the general clinical presentation of meningitis, that will be a big booster.

I love the combo of humour and medicine, it makes it sink in easily. Thanks once again Dr Raj for such a great lecture. I am just loving neuropathology with you, I hope I could be a guru like you :)

VERY good lecture, thanks for such an essential break down of this topic, I am loving this topic.

As usual highly rated. I love your lectures and the whole Lecturio team. Keep the good work up. Thank you

No matter what, I appreciate Dr. Raj, I have been watching his videos and I have watched more than a bunch of his videos. I want to say a big thank to you and the whole Lecturio team :) thank you for such a wonderful system and teacher who is making learning Medicine easier and clearer. Thanks a bunch

Lots of facts and information missing, goals for therapy not mentioned

I’d like too see more images incorporated in this course to allow visual learning!

I like it very much. He explained the topic easy. I love neurosurgery but in emergency there are a lot of patients with headache.

well explained quick summary, has all the important information, maybe adding lumbar puncture contradictions would be helpful, thank you for all the amazing lectures Dr. Alverson, they are very helpful in reviewing pediatrics

Thank you so much, Dr Warriner, you are a brilliant professor!

it is a good a good teacher that explain and transmit you the information using the easiest way possible i liked it very much

good coverage of all headaches, well explained, satisfied very much so

es un excelente vídeo, y esta muy bien explicado; justo el tema de mi próxima evaluación

The presentation is very well explained, with clinical and imaging presentation. highly recommend.

it's a well prepared material and professional doctor thank you sir

Great professor! Thank you for your lectures! it is short, informative, and NOT boring!

This lecture helped me a lot to understand what going on there!

this is a very thorough lecture. I was able to understand easily from this video. Thank you

I like it, but I think he need to explain more about CVA and anatomical relation . Some times I find it difficult to understand the accent.

I like that is the most precise information that you might need for solving clinical cases later in practice

I like your lectures Raj! Always helping me a lot, thank you

I'm glad you fixed the mistakes in the classes so we can fully trust lecturio.

Very good table explained and I appreciate the extra details added to it.

I watched it to reinforce and know a little bit more about stroke besides the information that I already read in books or articles, because in lecturio I got more facts that I don't find anywhere else. And I would recommend it to my friends in med school since you can watch the videos or answer the quiz before you read about some topic or after, so you feel sure about what you know.

Really grateful my brain works well with Dr. Raj's teaching style He always drops in links to other topics & things you should be thinking about when delivering his lectures

Dr. Raj nails it, easy and quick, to the point, nothing unnecessary, thank you!!!

Very clear and thorough, liked it a lot thank you Dr Cornwall!

The subtitles do not go according to the doctor's explanation

Not impressive. Just reading the slides and dull expressions. half of his word are unable to be listened

Very concise and clear. He is an excellent teacher. Still confused about mononeuritis multiplex

I was able to learn a lot in a short time . I particularly liked how she simplified the material

Short and concise lecture. It helped to review the topics.

Dr. Raj lectures are always funny This lecture is short, provides key points, easy to remember Excellent explanation for the anatomical-clinical correlation

Well explained. The failure was to be so explicit without a lot of explanation.

Me gusta porque es muy puntual con el tema, y el manejo del mismo

Lecture on this topic was clear and easy to follow. Terminology was and the appropriate to promote understanding and retention.

It is very usefull, focused and illustrative, clear voice I recoment it to all pediatrician and pediatric neurologist

seriously these series of lectures are the absolute worst. no explanation at all, no physiopathology, no images...just a pathologist who seems to be severely under qualified to teach a comprehensive clinical neurology lecture , reading a bunch of bullet points off the most lazily prepared power point presentation. seriously strating to wonder what the point of lecturio is. I do the q bank right after the lectures and literally nothing that is asked is mentioned in these lectures.

I really enjoyed watching this lecture versus having to listen to hours of lecture on these topics.

I liked his explanation: first the context and then see the Alzheimer's itself.

Very clear and concise definitions of stroke vs TIA. I appreciate that Dr. Raj underlines the importance of TIA treatment as a risk factor for a stroke.

La traducción, no es tan buena; pero ha sido un tiempo bien invertido por su explicación.

creo que es magnifico esta ayuda, puntual , resumida, y lo necesario para tener una vision panoramica antes de clases

me dio la idea general de como enfocar el diagnostico de ACV

queria puntos claves en el diagnostico y tratamiento, ademas de una vista panoramica antes de entrar al tema a estudiarlo por completo y me ha servido demasiado. muchas gracias

The class is good, very easy to learn in short time.

This is a very good lecture for everyone, not just people studying medicine.

Very helpful work from Dr.Farrell, Thank you very much.

Excellent explanation in every perceptive ! I would like to have a bit more pictures in the PPT !

excellent i learnt many things from this lectures (Dementia is very important problem) thank you

a lot of help a lot of help a lot of help ssssssssssssssssss

not upto the mark lecturer laughing inappropriately and information not eplained properly

Very good course!!! Sometimes the accent is a little difficult to understand, but I really liked it..

I liked it very much as an introduction to CVA and to bring it all together. I watched the entire series before studying with textbooks to fill in the blanks. Carlo Raj is making sure I know what's important. If you expected to be finished with CVA after watching a few videos you will be disappointed no matter what you choose to watch.

this lecture is great, good level of detail and well explained!

Clear emphasis was made, and the pace was easy for audience to follow

Well-structured, with emphasis on high-yield pieces of info. Saves time for memorization

crystal clear concept.very helpful lecturer.His voice is also very attractive.

DR Carlo Raj is a great educator.very nice speech, clear concept of every topic.seems like I have a good private tutor and no need of books after watching his lecture.

An excellent run through of stroke and tia that incorporates pathophysiology biochemistry clinical presentation and mx ...... great teaching thanks

Because the doctor explains excellent all the conferences and make it easy to learn and remember what I learned

Tons of mistakes in what seems to be all fields of Lecturio videos. It's a shame really. This one in particular goes on about the "virus" H. Influenzae. It's just tons of basic stuff that they really mess up. I wouldn't even use this as a free resource honestly.

Despite that Dr. Raj inaccurately recognized H. influenzae as a virus (which is actually a G(-) bacterium), he did a good job of engaging students in thinking and reflecting, while pointing out a general memory-aiding scheme ( e.g. common skin flora species being implicated in post-neurosurgery/penetrating trauma/CSF-associated meningitides) Having watched many of Dr Raj's videos (a med-student with high standards myself and always hateful of lackadaisical teaching styles of the MAJORITY of professors in my country), I have to say Dr. Raj exhibits excellent "mentor" qualities in a style of his own.

Great many teaching points given in a well organized and easy pattern. The lecturer is lively with expressions and gestures though initially she appears to be referring down over her notes, but subsequently overcame that hurdle. Her tone and expressions show that she loves teaching. The images and their explanation is superb as well.

Detailed and comprehensive lectures. Good overview of Alzheimer disease and pathophysiology

I still like Dr. Raj professionalism and high yield content. Very useful

high yield and very useful. I personally like Dr. Raj (professionalism, kind of humour and teaching skills). Readily helpful for me and my preparation to Step 1

clear and concise in explanation; content well-organized and presented in a way that is easy to absorb

This taught me... I was wondering one day while I was reading a Medical book, hmm what are seizures? Then I was looking all over the web found this website and went to Carlo Raj, MD for seizures this is just the beginning for me and I hope I like the rest of his videos.

very good video. Did not not know the relation to floppy baby and botulinum toxin.

Slow but comprehensive but not completely enticing. I dont think that this is sufficient for the boards.

I love that he tells us a story from his own life. Will help me remember this!

very clear and concise explanation. Thank you Doctor Joseph Albert.

He is very clear and specific .Is important to know anatomy and pathology to understand his lecure an be able to respond thearlier questions

I like the lecture but tend to give highlights, good if concepts are explained in details and visual teaching aids included.

Very informative and concise.. with application of info on real case analysis

Horrible Lecturer. Teaching Cant be this way, unfortunately! I hope someone else takes over.

Not detailed enough in concepts. Mostly comprised lists of pathologies/syndromes. less emphasis on conceptual development

allow i just wanna give five stars innit yes yes yes

I think this lecture lack of details and certain points needed as introduction

Presentation could be a lot better, teacher continues to show lack of preparation as the video went on, not engaging to the viewers.

It was very helpful as I am a visual learner and I was able to add more material to my notes. Plus, I enjoyed that she simplified everything.

Excellent lecture. Loved that it was succinct and to the point.

Very well-explained and thus helpful lectures! Also, the images are better than anywhere else.

its really good but kind little short the doctor did good job specially emphasis on important parts

The MSE is clearly explained in this video. Thank you very much!

First of all, love the option to choose the speed of the video clip. Secondly, it was smartly taught, no matter which type you are, from visual to auditory-learner, you are going to understand and learn it easily. I also loved Dr. Fisher's (the lecturer) teaching style, brief description for medical terms, mentioning important DDx, plus his tone and not having specific accent.

A very bad lecture. Mistakes that can not be said lecture after lecture

very clear explanation and easy to understand great examples and easy to follow

I would have love to learn further about the criteria for performing a head CT eg Canadian Head CT Criteria or others that may be appropriate to guide decision for head CT

Again a really comprehensive coverage of this topic. I would like in the future for a discussion regarding the use of mini-mental state examinations as it is an important part of the work up of a patient with memory impairment. I was surprised not hear about the cautious use of neuroleptics in Lewy body dementia. I would have like to learn more about the clinical utility of neuroimaging and when you would use them? Finally, It would have also been good to tackle prion disease

A truly comprehensive coverage of this topic. Really impressed with how much information is included and the systematic approach to formulating a ddx

Good summary of the topic but would have been also good further discuss some of the immunosuppresive agents and fingolimod. In the dx workup section the use of MRI was also omitted

I really enjoyed the overall topic. Good balance of detail. What I suggest for future revisions is to expand the criteria for when you would prescribe AED for example aside from 2 eps pts with focal abnormalities or underlying conditions that cannot be remedied or patients with abnormal EEGs may be started on these agents. Furthermore, impact on driving and occupation could have also been included. Finally, I would love to see a separate section focused secondary cause of seizures.

It would have been good to further discuss migraine headaches and tensions headaches. I would have like to learn more about the features of aura (incl scotomas). Moreover, a discussion on what constitutes medication overuse headache is warranted given the ease of access to OTC analgesics. Finally an opportunity has been missed to discuss if which circumstances you would consider the use of prophylactic therapies

Not sure if there will further talks on haemorrhagic stroke but significant omissions evident. For example target for BP lowering, discussion of management of complications incl vasopasm, raised ICP, seziure prevention. Work up of patient wasn't clear ie the use of lumbar punctures in high clinical suspicions but ct equivocal

I enjoyed the series on ischaemic stroke but it would have been great to discuss in more depth the secondary management of stroke in particular blood pressure targets and agents with the most supportive evidence for use (e.g ACE-I). I also note that there was an omission about the best way to manage BP in the acutely hypertensive patient post stroke. Despite theses as always good taster of the topic. I appreciate the challenge of work that goes into producing these contents

The lecture was concise and to the point. Dr Carlo's Style of lecturing always provides the right amount of emphasis, and his use of anecdotes help in visualising the patient. Any Iecture by Dr. Carlo Raj Is always highly recommended.

the professor should smile a bit :) His tone is scary at times.

I didn't like the lecturer he is like screaming and shouting in my opinion

The explanation is up to the point and very precise,love each one of the video this doctor had conducted. :)
