Hi Michael,

Thank you for your feedback.

I agree that this is a high yield topic and we will definitely send your feedback to our team to work on a topic regarding sterilization techniques.

Please continue to post your insightful and high yield posts on our site and we will do our best to look further into it.

There needs to be added a subsection of Disinfection and Sterilization in Microbiology Section. I have encountered 3 or 4 questions in Uworld and 4 in Kaplan. You need to specified difference between sterilization ( complete/absolute elimination of pathogen) versus Disinfection ( elimination, removal or neutralization of pathogens in order to achieve reduce microbial contamination to an acceptable “safe” level, elimination is therefore not complete and can include improve condition( survival) for other microbes. The key in distinguishing both terms is likely the survival of endospores. If endospores are kill alongside other pathogens the process is a sterilizing agents while if endospore survive is it a disinfectant agent. Present use of sterilizing agent is autoclave. Alcohol, Chlorhexidine, phenols are non oxidizing disinfectant agents that denature proteins and disrupt cell membranes but are not sporicidal. While Hydrogen peroxide, Hypochlorite acid, iodine are oxidizing disinfectants (capable of forming free radicals, that if use in higher concentrations can be sporicidal. Most commercial products have lower concentrations and therefore are less likely to be sporicidal. one of the questions I have encounter is using hand sanitizer as a means to reduce post surgery or healthcare associated infections or reducing S.epidermidis infections and another question referring to which sterilization technique should be use in surgical equipment( autoclave). Autoclave functions as pressurized steam at >120C. Chlorhexidine is usually use in disinfection of surgeon's hand prior to surgery, iodine in disinfection or surgical site prior to surgery, 70% alcohol in skin prior to venipuncture or immunization. Chlorhexidine in cleaning wounds and use of silver sulfadiazine in burn wounds.
*Prions remains infectious even after autoclave treatment.

hi. i like the qs. Very underrated. but tbh, the interface needs major upgrades. for starters, why cant i highlight the qs while taking a test? Kindly enable it, so that it reaches closer to simulating the real deal

Guys, I am really impressed by this Q Bank and Variety of question it has.
I think this is the highest yield but underrated material for Step 1.
I wish I knew about this one earlier in my preparation.
Keep it up Hard Workers.

I used the MedBullets Step 2&3 content to supplement going through practice questions when studying for Step 2CK, and it really helped me to go through specific topics from start to finish when I got questions on them. It also helped to see additional questions that might pop up with the various topics! The curators are extremely dedicated to included the most up to date information on these topics, which helps when trying to decide which resource is most correct when studying. I highly recommend using this content to study for Step 2CK!

Hey I just want to give some feed back concerning med bullets. I go to a Carribean medical school and i took the USMLE step 1 in November last year. Got my results in December and i am happy with a score of 249. I used med bullets qbank after going through other Qbanks and i have to say, this website was extremely useful in consolidating everything i had learned prior. Will definitely be returning to this site when preparing for the step 2's. Keep up the good work.

I'm not into books at all, so FA was just not as helpful as others had told me for my own way of studying. Finding medbullets has been a great aid for my usmle prep and I always tell other students about it, sometimes seems I should get paid for the advertisement ;) thanks for this awesome website. It truly helps people like me who like interactive videos, short reading and questions to test your knowledge. Also the fact that its free is unbeatable.

Hi Admin,
I am new here, my CK exam is in 2 weeks. I came across this website yesterday and the very thing that came to my mind was to postpone my exam. Medbullets have so much to offer. Its so concise and well organized that I feel sorry I have so less time to use it.Anyways, I am going to take my exam at my scheduled date and till then I'll try to go through the high yield stuff atleast. Thanks a lot for this awesome site.

Hi,

I want to personally thank Dr. Moore for taking the time out and making such a brilliant website. It is so concise yet explanatory in it's own unique way with the bullet points alone. Along with that, videos and really good illustrations make it an ideal way to integrate everything.

Dr. Damian Apollo, thank you. I am seeing things in a whole new light. I appreciate it so much. Excellent explanations!! All other Doctors are great too in their own ways. Again sincerely thank you all.

This medbullets started as a complete free site. It has grown up so much with the active contributions from many who fed information into it. It is some one's good thoughts of creating such a site, but now, it is partly a free and partly a money making. I hope this will continue to be a complete free site sincerely helping the medical community, since the knowledge anyone gain from this site will only be used to help anyone to have a better health. After all the best health is the best wealth some one can have.

I rarely reference sites this often due to excessive detail that I tend to get lost in.
I love how the main points are kept as the focus, because we all have books we can reference for details.
The simplicity really helps in memorizing key points about certain topics that one can get boggled down on with too much information.
Thank you so much for this website, Im glad it randomly came up on one of my google searches, now its been bookmarked and visited on a daily basis!!

P.S. I recommend making a phone app.

Thanks again!!

Medbullets,

The website is SOLID! Love the continual updates and references you utilize when creating the content. One pet peeve I have is the low resolution icon of medbullets logo on the top left...it's pixelated relative to the sharpness of the icons (toolbar).

Keep up the good work!

Just want to echo the other comments on here in saying this is such a wonderful resource. I'm almost exclusively using it to study for my Cardio exam for med school in a couple days. It contains just about all of the high-yield information we need to know. Thank you for a fantastic review, and please don't change a thing! I would be okay with more practice questions of course, but the format is just perfect.

Anonymous commented at 1:54AM on 12/18/13

This is an incredible resource that I will definitely use to study for Step 1. It is a perfect supplement to go along with First Aid. While the two are almost equally succinct, this site somehow has been helping me clarify things that are not explained in enough detail to me in First Aid. I think once enough people discover this site, this could become very popular not just for boards, but med school in general. Great work.

Anonymous commented at 9:19AM on 11/04/13

Anonymous commented at 10:27PM on 08/20/13

Just wanted to acknowledge the great project you have at Medbullets.com. I remember using Orthobullets during my surgery rotation. It is great to see something for boards with a similar concept. I found out about Medbullets a couple days before my step 1 exam which was 2 weeks ago. I wish I had heard about it earlier. With only 3 weeks prep time for step 2(I have it next week), Medbullets is efficiency at its best. Thank you!

Hi great resource just signed up but use Orthobullets a lot. Im a Physiatrist and subspecialty is Sports. You guys are missing medicine's best kept secret= my specialty, Physical Medicine and Rehab. It looks like one of the few missing specialties on your list. I hope it is added would be a great resource benefit. Thanks

It goes hand in hand with First Aid, but with simply and more detailed explanation that makes it easier to understand and retain information. Wonderful site, continue to keep it simple.

Anonymous commented at 8:18AM on 06/06/13

I've noted the text based format of the website and I just want to let you guys know nice job keeping it simple. Using fancy flash based stuff for the information that slides in/out just slow down the function of the website. I'm a big fan of the simplistic design and I hope as you grow in users and popularity you don't feel the pressure to change it to "make it more appealing/refined".
