    Brian F. Mandell, MD, PhD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine November 2007, 74 (11) 767;

    I initially had concerns when told that we would be typing all of our visit notes directly into the computer, but I was pleasantly surprised by the benefits of adopting electronic health records.

Im Board Review

  • You have access
    A 19-year-old man with oral ulcers, pulmonary infiltrates, and rash
    Maria Clarinda A. Buencamino, MD, Sachin S. Goel, MD, Ralph J. Tuthill, MD and Alan Taege, MD

    Treating pulmonary arterial hypertension: Cautious hope in a deadly disease
    Omar A. Minai, MD and Marie M. Budev, DO, MPH
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine November 2007, 74 (11) 789-806;

    Advances have brought cautious hope for patients with this progressive and deadly disease. Intravenous prostanoids are still the most effective drugs for long-term treatment, but oral options are available for some patients who can be closely monitored.

Review

    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine November 2007, 74 (11) 807-816;

    Chronic accumulation of iron due to regular blood transfusions leads to heart failure and death at a very young age, but chelation can avert this fatal outcome.

  • You have access
    Testis cancer: Rare, but curable with prompt referral
    Timothy Gilligan, MD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine November 2007, 74 (11) 817-825;

  • You have access
    Electronic health records: A primer for practicing physicians
    Neil B. Mehta, MD and Mary H. Partin, PhD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine November 2007, 74 (11) 826-830;

    Electronic health records have the potential to improve the quality of patient care, reduce the cost of health care, and expedite the transfer of information. Yet fewer than 20% of hospitals and physician practices now use them.

  • Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: An argument for wider clinical use
    You have access
    Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: An argument for wider clinical use
    Aparna Padiyar, MD and Mahboob Rahman, MD, MS
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine November 2007, 74 (11) 831-838;
