HSLS provides access to several resources that present both real and fictional case studies for use in teaching and studying in the health sciences. Utilizing case studies in health sciences education encourages critical thinking, enhances problem-solving skills, and challenges students with a real-world context for information learned in the classroom.
\n<\/p>\n

Here are a few of the case study resources available through HSLS:<\/p>\n

PubMed Central
\n<\/strong>As part of the NIH\/NLM, PubMed Central (PMC) provides access to an archive of case report journals from a wide variety of medical specialties, from emergency medicine and surgery to drug safety and dentistry. Visit PMC<\/a> to browse available journals and read full texts of published case reports.<\/p>\n

McGraw Hill Medical “Access” Resources
\n<\/strong>AccessMedicine<\/a>, AccessPharmacy<\/a>, and AccessSurgery<\/a> each offer an extensive library of specialty-specific case studies. From each homepage, look for \u201cCases\u201d in the row of drop-down menus (near the top of the page). These case studies walk you step by step through the diagnostic process, with questions along the way to prompt critical engagement with each case.<\/p>\n
