The Project
Overview
The goal of the Cardiology Board Review Project is to create a universally accessible free repository of Cardiology Board Review Questions. All questions must be original and cannot violate WikiDoc's strict policies regarding plagiarism. Liability related to copyright violations regarding cardiology board review questions rests with the person who prepared the question. Please notify WikiDoc in writing if you feel that there has been a copyright violation regarding a board review question. Board review questions are reviewed and discussed by the WikiDoc Scholars. After creating the questions, the editor must quality check his or her own work using the WBR quality checklist. Cardiology board review questions must be approved by the peer-review process prior to uploading them onto WikiDoc.
Statement of Need
Current cardiology board review sites charge exorbitant fees for access to the content which may represent an undue financial burden and barrier to participation.
How Can WikiDoc Meet Those Needs?
- Provide robust resources for cardiology fellows and attending physicians to prepare for the Cardiovascular Disease Certification Exam
- Provide opportunities for cardiology fellows and attending physicians to exchange knowledge, strategies and test-taking skills
How Can You Help WikiDoc Meet Those Needs?
- WikiDoc encourages medical students, interns, residents, fellows, attending physicians, and faculty members to submit cardiology board review questions.
- WikiDoc Cardiology Board Review Project is led by Will Gibson, M.D., Ph.D. from Harvard Medical School. For more details, you can send an email to willjgibson@gmail.com.
How to Create A Question
Principles
- Refer to WikiDoc pages for texts, figures, and videos in the explanation.
- Avoid using medical eponyms in the question stems. Instead, describe the signs and symptoms in medical terminologies. For instance, replace "marfanoid habitus" with "arachnodactyly (long fingers), increased arm span to body height ratio (long limbs), scoliosis (curved spine), high-arched palate, and joint hypermobility".
