The Cardiology Rotation (TCR), Third Edition 2021 George J Tay Amanda F Northup

One month clinical electives seldom have an organized curriculum; students and residents often ask for a general review, and there haven't been many choices. The Cardiology Rotation (TCR) fills that need, a tutorial that is basic and broad. It can be read during your first week on the service. Having done that you will learn more as you see patients, and will have more to contribute when rounding with the cardiology fellow and attending. TCR is also a review for USMLE Steps 2 & 3, Family Practice, and Internal Medicine board exams. Throughout, it identifies clinical issues that are favorites of board examiners. Scan the table of contents for an idea of the breadth of coverage. If you know 70-80% of the material in this big-picture tutorial, you will do well on the cardiology sections of these exams.
