  • Medium Robbins Latest Edition (Chapter numbers are mentioned according to this edition)

Note:

  • The sequence of the approach is the same as I’ve explained in the previous block guidelines that first you take Pathoma lectures and give a read to its notes and then move towards Medium Robbins. Therefore, I’ll guide you from Robbins only in the section below.

GLOMERULAR DISEASES

007: RPGN (it’s not a specific type of primary glomerular disease but it’s a sequelae of any severe rapidly progressing glomerulonephritis)

  • ​immunological types( best given in pathoma) also do it from pathogenesis
  • ​morphology

  • Dhingra ENT 8th Edition (Chapter numbers are mentioned according to this edition)

Overview:

  • As it’s a clinical subject so first you need to understand the basics of preparing such subjects,  like you will be focusing on the clinical workup of every disease which includes:
  • Differential Diagnosis: patient’s complaints or symptoms, points to be noted in history and signs on inspection and examination.
  • Confirmation of Diagnosis: examination points and investigations to rule out other DDS, investigations to confirm a certain diagnosis and investigations to monitor the response of treatment on follow up.
  • Management:
    • Conservative: lifestyle changes , any special advice.
    • Medical : drugs etc.
    • Surgical: minimal invasive to radical procedure.
  • Always try to segregate emergency situations from non-emergency cases as in ER case, you will skip conservative step and provide immediate resuscitation ( almost similar steps to follow in most of the cases like, admission, IV lines for fluid and antibiotics if infective cause, oxygen therapy if spO2 indicates the need, definitive airway, monitoring) to stabilize the patient. We usually avoid surgical procedures as they further deteriorate the patient’s physiological reserve but indicated only if it’s necessary to save the life of the patient.
  • One other important thing I want to mention beforehand, as in the modular system you’re provided with LOs and our books are not written according to these LOs therefore it’s not always possible to find the answer in your books. I’ll try to cover max points from the book but It’ll be better if you people take help from AI sources.
