H&P notebook - Medical History and Physical notebook, 100 medical templates with perforations

Great to use during third year rotations though there’s not a lot of space… use it more as a guide to help you in history taking

I originally got this for my boyfriend when he started 3rd year medical school rotations and he absolutely loved it. He said it is great especially for IM. It helped him organize his thoughts and notes and not forget to ask anything. He then got one for me and I agree! This is super helpful especially for medical students and interns, as they may need a little more guidance. It could also be helpful for senior residents and attendings, but less necessary since they are more experienced and may not need that level of guidance.

Really useful for logging patients and getting down information fast!

This was great for my clinical rotations. I was using a plain notebook but really wanted to have some organization with my H & P. The only thing that was kind of disappointing is the size of the notebook. It’s a little too small for my big writing, however, it fits conveniently in your white coat, which is nice.

This notebook helped me learn an efficient way to take a history and perform a physical exam.

Perfect addition to my study materials and quick shipping

As a 3rd year medical student who recently began clinical rotations, this notebook is great for keeping me on track with the H&P and helping me to organize my findings and notes for better recall later. I especially like the review of systems as it seems to match the level of detail of what is expected of me (I'm currently on internal medicine)- the ROS is not too deep in the weeds but has ample coverage of every key system.Just be sure to write small! I'm aware that making this notebook any bigger would limit its portability, but I wish they'd give just a little more space for the blood pressure reading, patient name, MRN, and chief complaint as I struggle to fit my letters and numbers into the spaces provided. Also, I didn't think the differential diagnosis spaces placed below the CC helped much; most of the patients I'm currently seeing have more than a few comorbidities and in IM they prefer to have the DDx listed by organ system (or problem list). I can't speak for most other specialties though.All in all, very happy with my purchase and well worth the money! Saves a lot of time and frustration on the wards, and the organization will make your progress note writing faster if you typically suffer from poor note-writing like me.

I think I probably just didn’t spend enough time with the product to become familiar but I was spending more time trying to write things in the appropriate box than listening to my patients. I am a nurse practitioner student and several classmates find this very helpful particularly when just starting clinical. However for me it didn’t really work. I just use a regular old notepad which is roughly the same size and jot down notes as I go.
