One of the most significant sources of medical mind maps is Life in the Fast Lane, a website edited by a team of Australian physicians. Their 353 ICU Mind Maps can be downloaded as PDF files.

In making use of these maps, you should evaluate the sources and decide whether you can rely on their accuracy and completeness. Be aware that WikIT does not endorse or validate the maps and our editors are not qualified to do so.

This article is one in a series relating to the main one on the topic: Medical profession’s use of mind mapping

They cover, in extraordinary detail, the following extensive range of topics in medical study:
