Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)
Overview Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) and Acute Kidney Disease (AKD) describe a spectrum of sudden decline in renal function occurring over hours to days, characterized by a rapid drop in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), accumulation of nitrogenous waste products (azotemia), and deregulation of extracellular fluid volume and electrolytes. Under the KDIGO framework, AKI represents acute…

Paget’s Disease of Bone
Overview Paget’s disease of bone (PDB) is a chronic skeletal disorder characterised by focal areas of accelerated and disorganised bone remodelling. The disease begins with excessive osteoclastic bone resorption followed by a compensatory increase in osteoblastic bone formation. The result is structurally weak, enlarged, and deformed bone that is prone to fracture and complications such…

Our mission
Medical science is complex. Understanding it should feel possible.
Armando Hasudungan turns difficult medical science into clear visual explanations and connected learning experiences—so learners can see the whole picture, remember what matters and find a clearer way forward.




See it clearly
Turn abstract processes and invisible relationships into something the learner can picture.
Connect the pieces
Build understanding around how concepts fit together—not a pile of isolated facts.
Make it useful
Help learners move from explanation to recall, revision and the next logical step.
What clarity feels like
When the topic stops being a blur.
Learners do not come back because the subject became easy. They come back because the explanation gave them a picture they could work with.
“Armando's teaching style gives me the foundational knowledge.
“The notes I make during his videos help me retain everything better.
“The drawings are amazing and super easy to remember.
Coming soon: the AH study platform
The explanation is only the start.
The free library helps you find a clear explanation. The AH platform is being built to help you connect the resources, follow a clearer path and check what actually stuck.
- Watch in a focused, ad-free study environment.
- Move between connected videos, notes, diagrams and questions.
- Know what belongs next instead of rebuilding the study path yourself.
- Test your understanding while the topic is still fresh.
New and worth a look
Keep building the picture.
Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome
Overview Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a motion-related clinical disorder of the hip in which symptoms and clinical signs occur in association with characteristic femoral and/or acetabular morphology. The accepted diagnostic concept is a triad of symptoms, clinical signs and imaging findings ; bone morphology alone does not establish the syndrome. Patients commonly present with…
