These cases have been created for use in the education of pre-licensure healthcare students. The majority of our "patient" stories and videos are fictional and involve actors and standardized patients. They do not represent real individuals. Any 'real patients' are so identified and have given consent to share their stories on our site for education and non-commercial related purposes. The professionals are real. Please be aware that these cases do not constitute a medical opinion and are not a substitute for seeking an opinion from your own healthcare provider.
