Chapter II Part 2
This course offers an in-depth exploration of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a progressive neurological disorder characterized by the deterioration of myelin sheaths in the central nervous system. You will learn about the pathophysiology of MS, its symptoms, including muscular weakness, visual impairment, and coordination issues, as well as the unpredictable nature of relapses and remissions. We will explore the clinical progression, with a focus on the impact of MS on functional abilities and quality of life. Topics such as the potential viral and autoimmune origins of MS, treatment options like immunosuppressive therapy, and emerging therapies such as electrical stimulation and hyperbaric oxygen treatment will be discussed. Additionally, the course covers the crucial role of managing MS-related complications and the overall prognosis for patients.
By the end of the course, you will have a comprehensive understanding of MS, its impact on the nervous system, and the various approaches to treatment and symptom management.

Chapter III Cardiovascular System
Part -1- History :
1- Chest pain
2- Associated factors
3- Relieving factors
4- Exacerbating factors
In this part of the lecture, we will focus on how understanding the history of a patient is essential for diagnosing cardiovascular conditions. We will begin by exploring chest pain, a key symptom in many heart-related issues. We’ll discuss how associated factors, like shortness of breath or nausea, can provide more insight into the cause of the pain. It’s also important to know what relieves or exacerbates the symptoms—this helps clinicians understand the severity and nature of the problem. By the end of this section, you will understand how a detailed history can guide diagnosis and treatment in cardiovascular care.
- Chapter III Cardiovascular System Part 2
Chapter III Cardiovascular System Part 2
This lecture focuses on understanding heart failure and its associated complications. Key topics include the identification of peripheral vascular symptoms such as intermittent claudication and pain at rest, with a special emphasis on how to assess symptoms related to leg pain, temperature, and circulation.
It also covers thromboembolic diseases, specifically deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and explores risk factors and clinical signs, such as calf redness, swelling, and tenderness. The lecture further delves into common cardiac conditions, including ischemic heart disease, valvular heart diseases (mitral and aortic issues), congenital defects (like atrial and ventricular septal defects), and conditions like myocarditis, endocarditis, and cardiomyopathies.
Additionally, you will learn about the New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification of heart failure, which helps assess the severity of symptoms and functional limitations in patients.

- Chapter IV part 1 Gastro-Intestinal System
Chapter IV part 1 Gastro-Intestinal System
A thorough history is essential for diagnosing gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. This section focuses on key elements in patient history that help localize and identify GI conditions:
- Abdominal Pain: Investigate the onset, location, character, radiation, duration, and severity. Understanding pain patterns can help differentiate between upper and lower GI issues.
- Aggravating Factors: Identify triggers such as certain foods, body position, stress, or medications, which can provide clues to underlying pathology.
- Diet/Appetite/Weight: Changes in diet or appetite, and unintentional weight loss, can signal mal-absorption, malignancy, or systemic illness.
- Early Satiation and Postprandial Fullness: These symptoms suggest impaired gastric emptying or functional dyspepsia and warrant further evaluation of upper GI function.
