Cardiology pocket FAQ

Is your question not listed here? You can reach out to us by email: contact@compendiummedicine.com.

  • The pocket's production is guided by the collective effort of students, doctors, and a team of over 10 specialists, including cardiologists.

  • The quality is ensured by a team of medical specialists who supervised and revised the text written by medical students.

  • The supervising team consists of a broad group of medical doctors, part of which is specialised in cardiology, and a part of which is in charge of readability and clinical applicability. In that way, we can ensure the best medical quality of the pocket while keeping it user-friendly!

  • This book is written for a diverse range of readers, including medical students during their rotations, residents, and potentially medical specialists who are not specialised in cardiology and wish to refresh their knowledge.

  • Currently, we're offering our pockets as paperback only. While we may explore digital options in the future, it's not on our roadmap at the moment.
