Poorly organized and low yield
By Bruno F. on 15. August 2023 for Mitral Stenosis and Mitral Regurgitation – Valvular Heart Disease

This lesson was very poorly organized and somewhat confusing. The content was exposed in what appears to be an arbitrary order and no logical connection was present. We were burdened with the graphs of multiple epidemiological studies while other elements of the diseases such as clinical presentation and diagnosis were neglected. Nonsurgical therapy is mentioned on the slides but was not explained in the lesson
