Atypical Pneumonia
Overview Atypical pneumonia is a clinical term traditionally used for pneumonia caused by organisms that do not have a cell wall, live intracellularly, or are not detected on routine bacterial culture. Important causes include Mycoplasma pneumoniae , Chlamydia pneumoniae , Legionella species, Chlamydia psittaci and Coxiella burnetii . Respiratory viruses can produce a similar syndrome.…

Pre-operative Care
Overview Definition Perioperative Management refers to the period of time extending from the day prior to surgical intervention to several days after said intervention. It consists of the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative period. Patient education Investigation used at surgery Coagulation status (ie. INR <2) Imaging scans for day of surgery Pre-operative care Aims: to provide…

Hydroxyapatite Deposition Disease
Overview Hydroxyapatite Deposition Disease (HADD) is a crystal-induced tendinopathy caused by the deposition of hydroxyapatite (HA) crystals, typically in periarticular soft tissues, especially tendons and bursae. The shoulder (supraspinatus tendon) is most commonly affected. It often presents between ages 30–60, more frequently in women. While often asymptomatic, it can cause acute pain and functional limitation…

Peripheral Arterial Disease (Chronic Lower Limb Ischaemia)
Overview Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is most commonly caused by atherosclerotic narrowing or occlusion of the arteries supplying the lower limbs. It may be asymptomatic, produce exertional intermittent claudication, or progress to chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) with rest pain, ulceration or gangrene. Acute limb ischaemia (ALI) results from a sudden reduction in limb perfusion and…

Miscarriage
Overview Miscarriage: Spontaneous abortion, or miscarriage, is defined as a clinically recognized pregnancy loss before the 20th week of gestation. Others define it as expulsion or extraction of an embryo or fetus weighing 500 g or less Abortion: After 20weeks Threatened miscarriage: A pregnancy less than 20 weeks’ gestation associated with vaginal bleeding, generally without cervical dilation.…

Cushing's Disease
Overview Cushing's syndrome is an over arching term to describe hypercortisolaemia dependent of independent of ACTH. Cushing's disease is a ACTH dependent syndrome characterised by excess corticosteroid production from the adrenal glands. It is ACTH dependent because it is triggered by an ACTH-secreting pituitary tumour. Adrenal Cushing's syndrome is different because it is hypercortisolaemia independent…

Pulmonary circulation – Causes and mechanisms of pulmonary hypertension
Explore the fundamentals of pulmonary vascular physiology, focusing on pressure dynamics and the development of pulmonary hypertension. This video explains how changes in vascular resistance affect lung circulation and heart function, essential for understanding pulmonary diseases.
Red blood cells and hemoglobin overview
Discover how red blood cells and hemoglobin carry life-sustaining oxygen throughout the body—how they’re made, structured, and what can go wrong. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are produced by bone marrow through erythropoiesis and transport oxygen via hemoglobin, a protein made of four globin chains and four heme groups with central iron atoms that bind O2…
Membrane Protein II
Dive deeper into Membrane Proteins in this educational video, focusing on their roles in transport, enzymatic activity, signal transduction, and cell recognition. This video explains the structure-function relationship of key membrane proteins, helping you grasp their clinical and physiological importance for medical exams.
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.

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

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…
