Case Files Collection: Getting Started

To engage with Case Files Collection and its content and resources, users need to create a free Access profile (upper-right sign in dropdown menu) in Case Files Collection. Users are encouraged to login each time they use the site. Download the PDF flyer below to learn more about creating an Access profile.

Case Files Collection provides materials for short, targeted case-based learning. The cases vary slightly, but generally for each case you get a patient history and systems review, short answer questions, clinical pearls, and references. Cases are durable URL-enabled and can be embedded into a course LMS page. The results of the quizzes can be emailed and collected for a grade, e.g. student to instructor.

Watch the tutorial below showing how to link to content and embed our durable URLs.

Case Files Podcasts: Here users can access our dynamic, engaging podcasts which complement cases in the site and help illuminate concepts from the cases. Dr. Eugene Toy, primary author of the Case Files series, brings the cases to life and emphasizes key concepts in an easy-to-use format.

• We have dozens of podcasts correlated to Case Files cases on the site in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, OB/GYN, and Surgery, and will be adding episodes in Psychiatry and Pediatrics (these are all of the most trafficked cases specialties on the site).
• In the new podcasts, Dr. Toy interviews the specialty authors and provides additional tips and pearls, or key takeaways of the cases, in an interview-style format.
• Instructors may also link to these episodes to embed in coursework using the durable URL same as we discussed earlier with linking to cases.
• The site is mobile-friendly, so users can listen to the episodes on-the-go.
