Day 48: Gastrointestinal – Watch Videos

Thank you. I´m going to present this topic at my hospital.

why does he teach in such a patronizing manner? Whenever I see that Raj MD is teaching the subject I go elsewhere to learn.

not sure how to connect some things or how they link up. just difficult to follow and conceptualise

too little information even about therapy and moa. Dr Raj is literally reading the slides. i can do it by myself.

Guy seems cross and the lecture is lacking in context and flow

I hadnt understood the condition until this lecture. Well expalined.

I dont know why on earth someone gave this 1 star. Excellent summary. As aways to the point.

clarified some of my misconceptions like the type of nutritional def associated with the condition and which parts of the bowel is affected. I am unsure why people gave it 3 star.

this topic is well explained and the discussion is clinically correlated. Thanks

good review of the topic. I am unsure why someone has given it 3 stars. Cant fault it.

such a good lecuture. Covers the topic in a broad sense. good clinical value.

my favourite lecturer. great lecture on such a complex topic

Thank you for such a good lectue. This has clarified things in my head and organize the topc.

very good approach to the problem of dysphagia, clear algorithm to reaching the diagnosis.

the speaker didnt mention at all serology and markers. insufficient information

great tutor, very informative and direct to the point helped a lot

Absolutely amazing videos! So easy to understand and retain. Thank you !

very well explained. I would recommend this lecture to any medical student. I enjoyed every bit of it.

Its was perfect explanation But not 5 since i still have questions

AS ALWAYS DR.CARLO RAJ IS A MAGICIAN (WHO CONVERTS TOUGH TOPICS =EASY TOPICS)

Excellent way of teaching with high yield information,kudos to Dr.Raj

He has a way to pass on knowledge and it’s stick!!!!

Excellent lecture by Dr.Raj , i like it very much. i love his sense of humor

Very well explained, makes remembering the difference between the cancers memorable!

Using Lecturio makes understanding and subsequent digesting and memorization of the material, so much easier. The lectures and notes are concise and to the point.

He is an excellent teacher that help me understand the concept very well

A great teacher that make concept to sink well. Does a Great job!!!

Videos are short and simple and good...but some topics should be given in more detail.

Dr. Raj as usual Concise + Direct + Very clinically relative = LIFE SAVER

The teaching is excellent and more from a practical point of view.

It is difficult to understand everything that the teacher says.

Excellent, very detailed, now feel more confident in the treatment and care of this infection

Dr. Carlo Raj is not competent in all of that spheres, why you put him in all videos? Very difficult to understand.

Really covered a lot of the material I need, which was not what other platforms offered. can be just a tad bit more extensive on the hepatology and also endoscopic procedures and ERCP/ MRCP. also mentioning what is the gold standard for certain diagnosis when applicable would be amazing.

Did not feel comfortable with the accent, way of communicating the information, way of pausing between one point and another. I am sorry to say that, but to me, and this is my personal view, and no offense, it is irritating

Concrete and useful information. Explanation is simple a to the Pointer.

Dr. Raj is obviously invested in our learning the topics. He emphasizes certain words or points that you pick up on right away. No boring power point regurgitation!

Bcs he explained everything very smoothly. And I understand faster. And am happy to be part of this wibsite

Every aspect is accurate and explained well In all aspects

Every aspect of the lecture is well explained. Presented accurately . Every part of it is very clearly understood by all. Very good topic

A rare topic presented very well. It is very accurate to understend for any one

It is a nice prasentation with a prompt accuracy and clear discription

Very nice topic told very clearly and every thing is clearly underdtood

Thank you so much for the lectures. This is pretty thorough and easy to understand.

satisfying. I am watching the lectures with enthusiasm. Great guy. Very helpful for the exam.

Very strange pauses while speaking, felt condescending at times. Not like his other videos, he seemed not confident in the material

like it very much, nothing to say too more. His lecture is very easy to understand.

fantastic teaching with instant impact to improve self confidence and boost knowledge

Easy to understand :D Very helping me to study better and better

He is clear, full of substance without any need to explain but gives accurate description.

To the point. lesson for life, highyieal, we’ll categorized

Very great video, as someone probably mention earlier a bit more pathophys would be appreciated

Comprehensive Detailed with anatomy Clinical examples Minimum words Great explanations

These lectures are very informative, detailed. I learned a lot from the lectures.

Wow.. What a Wonderfull course! Actually, I have linked the short videos that Dr. Carlo made with other educational videos, then I read the articles for each lecture, It was really like I have covered all of the I linked the peptic perforation with celiac trunk artries Or GIT Hormones with Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome. Thank you doctor Carlo.. from my heart really..

There are many more symptoms of oropharyngeal dysphagia than those mentioned (e.g. increased chewing time, inability to form bolus etc.). Also, referral to speech pathology would provide additional insight into the patient's dysphagia.

It was very usefull but the problem it has no much pathophysiology informations

Very funny the way that he explains everything, make difficult concept very much easy to understand and with high yield information!!!

I'm a huge fan of Dr. Raj so this may be a bit biased. Dr. Raj does an excellent job of hitting the high points and his anecdotes are quite relevant. You almost feel as though you're on rounds or in the clinic and there's a patient presenting with symptoms. Video examples of the endoscopes would be awesome btw.

I like it, please make high eyelid question, I ll really appreciate it,thanks

I felt that there where some details missing, Dr. Raj did give out the basic description of the majority of diseases, but if the videos where a little more complete I wouldn't of felt the need to go read and look some where else

It would have been useful to go over the Rome III criteria to have an appreciation of the diagnostic criteria. Moreover, it would be extremely beneficial to cover the red flags

For example no mention of primary scelorising cholangitis, need for colonscopy after 8 yrs of active disease and subsequent colectomy if premalignant lesions identified. Also no mention of toxic megacolon. It would have been good to discuss the hierarchy of management in these patients

A superficial talk about an important contributor to malabsorption. I think it would have been good to discuss why we need to assess for the prescence of IgA to begin with. What the role of HLA is in the disease. Moreover, the importance of biopsy as well as the long term complication of celiac disease include osteoprosis, neurological impairment and enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma.

It would would have been good to further elaborate on dx testing and in which clinical circumstances one would be more appropriate over the other. Also with the increasing incidence of resistant organisms I feel the lecture didn't adequately outline appropriate second line management. Also the error regarding PPI which was flagged by another listener

I think the lectures provide a quick summary of these sections. However, I don't think it is adequate depth particularly when it comes to management. This is exemplified by the management of oesophageal varices where it is unclear which management approach will be utilised first/preferred in the case of acute bleed nor is it clear when you will need to utilise TIPSS. Finally a number of diagnostic tests are mentioned throughout the talks but the audience is not provided with a basis to approach the patients sitting on front of them. As an example if a patient complains of dysphagia or dyspepsia what will be your first diagnostic tests and the order in which you will perform these test. I think this the higher level thinking required for step 2

No mention of ongoing follow up and grades of barrett's

So far the path lectures on my iPhone are great. I drive 30 minutes to school each way and I think they are very comprehensible even when it's this more passive learning style. They are perfect for getting my brain ready for school and winding down on the drive back.
