Week 9 Section 5 - Clinical correlations (MDSC 2203)

It's a very consolidated review. Please also add the definitions of some medical terms. Thank you. :)

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.

clear and exactly what is needed from subfalcine herniation. continue to provide these great lectures!

exactly what needs to be understood about intracranial pressure. clear and easily understood

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

Just reading from the slide not explaining anything at all. Could really use some illustrations to differentiate the different types of brain herniation.

The circle of Willis was not explained. The video basically just says the vertebral arteries and internal carotids give rise to the circle of Willis. What about all the other branches?

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

Like the details about shunt problems. Amazing lecture. Thanks a lot.

A series of very useful and didactic lessons, amazing! Thank you so much Dr. Canby.

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!

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

Excellent lecture, this topic is well explained from physiopathology to management. Thanks!

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

Good and clear lecture! If you need to get an overview of the CSF, works well

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

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

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

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

Great lecture! straight to the point and extremely informative. thank you so much for so many amazing teachers.

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

Lecture was excellent! very clear and simple. I enjoyed it. Thanks so much Dr Raj.

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

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!

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

great lecture. I am now very clear on the differentials. Thanks

Some of Dr Raj's lectures are excellent, but this is one of the frequent examples of his strange mannerisms obstructing a clear explanation.

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 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.

Nothing about what to look for on the scan, the exact diagnosis criteria, indicitons for treatment etc.

Breakdown and delivery of the information was much better than many other lectures in this part of the curriculum. However, the lecturer seemed confused and delivered information in a confusing way towards the end. I also noticed that one of the tables in the slides changes suddenly to read something different and this confuses things further. Overall a lecture capable of delivering useful information in a concise way.

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

Provided no useful explanations on the topic and I ended up looking for information on google to understand it myself. To much joking around and too little professionalism.

Ecplained efficiently and accurately . Every thing is shown with good clariity and accuracy

Lets his need top "put on a show" get in the way of explaining things. Could perhaps benefit from some diazepam before lecturing.

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.

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

great presentation, it covers the basic stuff about Ventricular system.

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

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.

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

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

Students who have a very good grasp on the topic may not appreciate it, but overall a good brush up on the choroid plexus and CSF.

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

Very little information is given, I understand lectures need to be easy and contain important information but this is a summary of a summary

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

I vbelieved he had a lot of clarity when explain confusing systems.

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

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

I think the lectures are very basic, the information is not sufficient for an exam questions

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

I'm not sure if this topic will be covered in neurosurg but serious detail lacking. First of all no definition what a raised ICP is and how best to diagnose. No clear explanation of the underlying cause ie mass effect (tumour, abscess), vascular (hypoxia, hypercapnia, venous flow obstruction), hydrocephalus (obstructive vs none), pseudotumor cerebri. It would have been useful to discuss shunts in the treatment as well and when you may consider inserting them

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.
