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…

Acute Compartment Syndrome
Overview The muscle groups of the human limbs are divided into section or compartments. Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) occurs when increased pressure within a compartment compromises circulation and function of tissues within that area. common sites of ACS is the leg and forearm. Acute compartment syndrome: A critical pressure increase within a confined compartmental space causing…

Glomerulonephritis
Overview Glomerulonephritis is inflammation of the glomerulus. Glomerulonephritis is classified by clinical syndrome/presentation (e.g. nephritic or nephrotic syndrome), histological appearance , or by aetiology. We will divide glomerulonephritis broadly into two broad types: Nephritic glomerulonephritis and nephrotic glormerulonephritis. Classification Two Types of Glomerular disease: Nephrotic Syndrome Nephritic Syndrome DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEPHROTIC AND NEPHRITIS SYNDROME …

Sickle Cell Anaemia
Overview Sickle cell anaemia is an autosomal recessive genetic hemoglobinopathy caused by a single point mutation in the beta-globin gene ( HBB ) on chromosome 11. This mutation results in a substitution of valine for glutamic acid at the sixth position of the beta-globin chain, producing abnormal hemoglobin S (HbS). Under deoxygenated or stressful physiological…

Aneurysm
Overview An aneurysm is an abnormal localised dilatation of a blood vessel with at least 50% increase in diameter compared to its normal diameter. It is seen more often in arteries compared to veins. Aneurysms are usually asymptomatic until they are very large or they rupture. A ruptured aneurysm can cause massive bleeding and death.…

Foot Anatomy: Bones, Joints, Arches, Muscles, Vessels & Nerves
Discover the bones of the foot—tarsals, metatarsals, and phalanges—and learn practical clinical anatomy for diagnosing fractures and common pathologies. This video breaks down foot anatomy with clear explanations of the tarsal group (calcaneus, talus, navicular, cuneiforms, cuboid), the five metatarsals, and the toe phalanges, plus the functional division into hindfoot, midfoot, and forefoot. You’ll understand…
Parasites Overview
Parasites are microorganisms that live on a living host and derive nutrition them without any benefit to the host. Parasites can also cause harm to the infected host. There are three classes of parasites that cause infections in humans: Protozoa, Helminths, Ectoparasites.
Active Diffusion – Primary and Secondary Active Transportation
Explore the mechanisms of Active Transport, focusing on the differences between primary and secondary active transport in this educational video. Learn how ATP and ion gradients drive molecule movement across membranes—essential for understanding cellular physiology and acing 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.
Jessica Payne-Burnett
Medical Student, Charles Sturt University
“The notes I make during his videos help me retain everything better.
Ayesha RaiStudent, Islamabad Medical and Dental College
“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.
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)
Overview Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is an umbrella term encompassing a heterogeneous group of chronic inflammatory arthritides of unknown etiology presenting in children under 16 years of age. It represents the most common chronic pediatric rheumatic disease, with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 1,000 children. To meet the diagnostic criteria, arthritis must persist for…
