Whose Love & blessings have always been the fuel of my
journey

My beloved teachers
Who guided us in the right direction

My juniors
Who pushed me to put the essential topics of final year mbbs
into the format of a book
Hey y’all, Super excited to introduce you the very zeroth edition of VITALS - The
inevitable portions for final year MBBS exams.

The book contains comparatively a very short number of high yielding selected portions
of Medicine, Surgery, Orthopedics, OBG & Paediatrics. Along with the selections, the
exact page number in which the topic is located has also been given. In addition, if the
same topic has to be studied from a different subject, the page number of that book has
also been given along with it so that one can study the common topics in an integrated
manner. The weightage of the topic is also detailed. Locations of multiple sources have
been given for a single subject which will allow one to choose the convenient textbook.

VITALS zeroth edition will be a free of cost soft copy. Since it's a soft copy, one can
easily search for a topic and instantly locate that portion in their standard textbook,
hence done a smart work there!

The book is made as a need of the hour as current batch of my juniors who is going to
appear the final year exams, has only got a very short period of time to prepare for their
final year university exams, when compared to the other batches, as COVID-19
pandemic affected their course schedule unpredictably.

On Making, VITALS has been treated totally in a theory exam point of view. The zeroth
edition of VITALS does not includes the pattern of university practical exam, as it is
intentionally excluded to avoid bulking of the book, and also considering the fact that
usually one won't fail in practical exam and hence not a vital thing to be included.

Hope you can thoroughly exploit the VITALS & i wish the book will ease your final MBBS
preparation and make things easier. For feedback and suggestions/ queries write to
vitalszerothedition@gmail.com

Happy learning and welcome to House Surgency!

VITALS is a book written by a young dynamic doctor for the enthusiastic medical students
preparing for their final year mbbs examination. It covers all the essential aspects of the theory
portions in an engaging, clear and concise manner. The focus of the book is to cover most
relevant topics while pruning unnecessary details.
Vitals is a must have book for under graduate medical students who unfortunately missed a
lot of their theory classes & guidance towards their theory exams recently due to the Covid
scenario.
It's a herculean task to find out the essential topics for UG exams from the bulky textbooks.
Internists will find VITALS a ready reckoner and handy manual for navigating towards the most
important theory portions and thus reducing the unnecessary time consumption of searching
a topic.
I am deeply honoured to have written the foreword for such a comprehensive and must read
book. I wish Dr. Mujeeb all success in his future endeavours.

In the era of smart learning, study of medicine should also become smart. In this regard,
here is a sincere effort by one of our students Dr. Mujeeb Rahman of 2014 batch who has
passed his MBBS last year.
He has incorporated study plans with the help of smart media in Medicine, Surgery,
Ortho, Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Pediatrics. He has referred all the standard text
books which an under graduate student is expected to refer for university exam
preparation.

I congratulate Dr. Mujeeb for his sincere efforts and wish him all the very best.

Here it is! Thank you so much for all the ones who supported, cared, loved & showed their
concerns directly & indirectly. Without many in the field of medicine, VITALS wouldn't have
been a reality.

My sincere gratitude to Dr. Aswith Das, Neurosurgery Senior Resident, Govt. Medical College,
Alappuzha and Dr. Monet Philipose, Medicine Junior Resident, Govt. Medical College,
Alappuzha for their valuable inputs & suggestions in the designing of VITALS.

I'm greatly appreciative for the Inspiring words from Dr. Jatheesh mohan & Dr. Akhil Suresh,
Medicine Junior Residents, Govt. Medical College, Alappuzha, which pushed me to go ahead
with the idea of making of the book.

I'm extremely thankful for the blessings & wishes from Dr. Vijayalakshmi, Former Principal,
Govt. medical college, Alappuzha, One of the best principals TDMC has ever seen.

Also I'm extremely greatful to all the HODs of final year departments for their blessings and
supportive words for the launch of VITALS.

I'm showing my deepest gratitude to Dr. Vrinda krishnakumar, former NAJR at Govt. Medical
College, Alappuzha for her invaluable inputs in the making of VITALS. She secured distinction
in all the 4 years of her mbbs life, Bagged the KUHS University Rank & recently cleared the
NEET PG in her very first attempt.
I extend my warmest thanks to all the College Union Members for their sincere support and
effort in organising the launch event and unveiling of the cover page frame of VITALS.

My sincere & heartfelt thanks to Ganesh Stores & Books, Alappuzha, Kerala for marketing and
distribution of the printed version of VITALS & also providing the latest edition medical books
for reference which made the book up to date.

First, kindly go through the Abbreviatons & see names of the Reference books used.
Now, let’s see few examples:

“Gas gangrene SHORT ESSAY 5M/ 4M/ 2M (Q. Etiopathogenesis, C/F, Ixs, Mx) Agar 228
| MMOS 41 | Bailey 49 | SRB 50”
 This means the topic Gas gangrene has been asked previously as a SHORT ESSAY
for 5 Marks, Also asked for 4 Marks, Again asked for 2 Marks. (So remember, this
is a frequently repeated question and thus a high yeilding topic). “Q.” indicatates
the Question. Here, the probable questions which may ask for the exam
regarding gas gangrene are Etiopathogenesis, Clinical features,
Investigations, Management of gas gangrene. Agar is abbrev. of the book
Agarwal’s “Review of surgery for students”. 228 is the page number in which the
topic has been located. The Vertical bar ‘|’ separates different sources of the
same topic. MMOS is Manipal Manual of Surgery 5 th edition. The location of the
same topic in Bailey, SRB has also been given.

“Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) NANB | Davd. 194 Box 10.24 (In Sx - Bailey 325 (Table 23.1)
2M | SRB 1079)”

 NANB - This means, for the topic Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) we have a Note
Attached NearBy. (Hence, if you don’t have time to go to the textbook, just study
the note given in the adjacent page of that selection (some notes given in the
same page itself). Kindly note that the Notes given in VITALS are sometimes little
difficult to findout from textbook; that’s why provided. Just because it given
there doesn’t mean that topic per se deserve more importance than rest of the
topics.)
 Then, the topic’s locations – Davidson pg. 194, Box 10.24. Now, the same topic is
important for surgery exam also; and the page no. of Bailey and SRB has been
given.

“Levels of Malignant Melanoma (D&L) (Clark's Staging) 2M DANB | SRB 288”

 Similarly to NANB, we have DANB. That is, a Diagram Attached NearBy.

“Myocardial Infarction (MI) ESSAY Mnt. 190 | Mnt. 680 (SQADG)”

 Mnt. is Manipal Prep Manual of Medicine (Manthappa) 3rd Edition. The topic
Myocardial Infarction (MI) is described in detail on Pg 190. But a SQADG (Sample
Question And Description Given) on Pg 680 of Manthappa.

 Dr. Mujeeb Rahman, MBBS is a young, enthusiastic doctor who is
currently working as a House surgeon at Govt. Medical College,
Alappuzha. He always wanted to include smart and efficient methods
of learning in the field of medical education. One of the
inconveniences he and his colleagues faced while preparing for the
final year mbbs university exam was to identify & locating the high
yielding topics from the standard textbooks. So he used technology
to make a smarter way to navigate into a particular topic by just
searching the name of the topic. Also, one can find out the weightage
of the topic, the no. of times that particular topic had been asked in
the previous years and also whether the same topic is a common topic for multiple subjects
so that an integrated study method is possible. He initially designed & developed the concept
in Evernote App and later decided to make a soft copy of the same in the format of a book.
Since the book contains the most essential topics only, He termed it VITALS. The soft copy is
free of cost and for those who need a hard copy, the same will be available at Ganesh stores,
Alappuzha for a pretty much affordable price.
