Editing plans for Ortner's Syndrome page
editHi, my name is Applebutterfly! I am a current 4th year medical student and am taking part in a WikiEdu course set up by my school. I have chosen Ortner's syndrome as my topic as it interests me in my quest to learn more about cardiology and to add to my knowledge as a future internal medicine resident. Another name for Ortner's syndrome is Cardiovocal.
My plan is to explore the anatomy of the region, the causes of the disease, the symptoms and how it presents, how to diagnose it, and current treatments. I plan to add images to aid in the understanding of the topic and explore how to use Wiki Commons.
Hey Applebutterfly! I am a fellow student in the WikiProject course and am assigned your article to peer review. Great job on your additions to this article. It looks really different now! I don't have any major edits to suggest besides maybe pursuing adding a diagnosis/diagnostic workup section. It could possibly just entail the common diagnostic workup involved when Ortner's is part of the differential or just elaborating the diagnostic workup in the cases you have described. Also, potentially adding an epidemiology section with information could be helpful, if that information does exist in the literature. You could reorganize the lead to potentially move and expand on the sentence about mitral stenosis to the first paragraph as it's more relevant and introduces the potential pathophys behind Ortner's. Finally, if there was imaging involved in the cases described that demonstrate the compression well, you could try to incorporate that into this page as well. Overall, good job!
Thanks! --PerpetuallyTachy (talk) 04:27, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
