Q.0001● From: Ischaemic Heart Disease · Slide 14
A 58-year-old man has had crushing central chest pain for 40 minutes. He is sweating and his heart rate is 48. ECG shows ST elevation in leads II, III and aVF. Which artery is most likely occluded?
Correct.
II, III and aVF look at the inferior wall. In most people the right coronary artery supplies it, and the SA and AV nodes too. That is why he is bradycardic. The circumflex supplies the lateral wall (I, aVL, V5–V6); the LAD supplies the anterior wall (V1–V4).

Every card gets a second read.
Writing questions is easy. Writing ones worth sitting is not. Questions are written only from your lecture, flashcards get a second editor, and one report hides a wrong one for your whole year.
QuestionsFrom your lecture only.
Every question is written from the slides you were taught, and tagged High-yield, Standard or Detail, so you know what’s load-bearing.
FlashcardsRepaired, not binned.
A second, text-only editor reads each card and repairs a vague one without changing its answer. Cards aren't deleted for being imperfect: a missing card teaches nothing.
Still wrong? Any student can report a question or card. A wrong one is hidden for the whole year, and nothing is deleted.

Circle what you don't get. The bank explains.
Write on your lecture with a pen, or on blank notebook paper. Circle any word, line or diagram and the Teller explains it from your lecture (paid plans and the trial). Best on iPad with Apple Pencil.
Circle to Explain
Countercurrent multiplier
The thick ascending limb pumps salt out but won't let water follow, so the medulla gets saltier. Water then leaves the descending limb. Fluid keeps moving and the step repeats, so a small difference multiplies into a steep gradient.

Acute coronary syndromes
From slides 12–19
Definition
A spectrum of myocardial ischaemia caused by rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque with thrombus on top. Whether the thrombus fully occludes the artery decides which syndrome the patient has.
Telling them apart
| Syndrome | ECG | Troponin |
|---|---|---|
| Unstable angina | Normal or ST depression | Normal |
| NSTEMI | ST depression, T inversion | Raised |
| STEMI | ST elevation, new LBBB | Raised |
Localising a STEMI
- II, III, aVF: inferior wall, usually the right coronary artery
- V1–V4: anterior wall, left anterior descending
- I, aVL, V5–V6: lateral wall, circumflex
Before you walk in
The lecture, in the time it takes to queue
- ACS is plaque rupture plus thrombus. The degree of occlusion names it.
- Troponin separates NSTEMI from unstable angina. The ECG separates STEMI from both.
- Inferior STEMI (II, III, aVF) means the right coronary. Watch for bradycardia.
- STEMI: reperfuse. Primary PCI within 120 minutes of diagnosis.
- Every patient leaves on antiplatelets and a statin unless there's a reason not to.

Why isn't it the circumflex?
TThe Teller
The circumflex supplies the lateral wall: I, aVL, V5–V6. These changes are in II, III and aVF. That's the inferior wall, so the right coronary.

What Panic Bank actually is.
In one paragraph
Panic Bank is an AI study app for medical students. Upload a lecture PDF and it writes clinical single-best-answer (SBA) questions — about 25 from a typical lecture — plus flashcards and full notes from that exact lecture, then brings each one back with spaced repetition right before you’d forget it.
It is for medical students whose exams come from their own faculty’s lectures, wherever they study. It also has spotting decks, OSCE history-taking by voice with an AI patient, Ink with Circle to Explain on iPad, a university library of lectures your classmates uploaded, and a leaderboard for your year. Web, iPhone and iPad; on Android, install it from your browser. Free to start, no card.
The film, in words · 1:26
The film walks through one lecture: deposit the PDF and choose what to make from it (questions, flashcards, Recap, notes); write in the margins and circle anything unclear to have it explained from your lecture; answer exam-style questions built from your slides, one clinical case at a time, recalling before the options appear; see why each option is right or wrong; watch your mistakes come back before you’d forget them; find everything from that lecture in one place in your library; and challenge friends to The Arena on the same questions.
How it compares

Stock banks are expert-written for licensing exams like the USMLE. Panic Bank writes from your lectures, for the exams your own faculty sets.

What is Panic Bank?
Panic Bank is an AI study app for medical students that turns your own lecture PDFs into exam-style SBA questions, flashcards and full notes, and brings each one back right before you’d forget it. It also has spotting decks, OSCE voice practice with an AI patient, and Ink with Circle to Explain on iPad.
How is it different from a normal question bank?
A stock bank is written for a curriculum that isn’t yours. Panic Bank writes the questions from the lecture you upload, so it tests what your professor actually taught — including the bits they lingered on.
What do I get from one lecture?
About 25 clinical SBA questions from a typical lecture (15–45 depending on length), each tagged High-yield, Standard or Detail; a set of flashcards; full notes covering every section; and a short Recap for the walk into the exam hall.
What can I upload?
A lecture PDF. Pasted text, photos of handwritten notes and video aren’t accepted. You can also add lectures your classmates already uploaded from your university library, and a lecture someone has already deposited comes back instantly, free.
Are the AI questions accurate?
They are written only from your lecture. Flashcards also pass through a second, text-only editor that repairs a vague card without changing its answer. If anything is still wrong, any student can report it, and a wrong question or card is hidden for the whole year.
Is it spaced repetition, like Anki?
Yes, with nothing to set up: questions are scheduled on SM-2 and flashcards on FSRS. There’s no export to Anki, so treat it as its own system.
Is Panic Bank free?
Free to start, no card. New accounts get a 3-day trial of the Core plan, and the free tier keeps a daily review allowance after that. Paid plans unlock unlimited review, the Teller, the mock exam and OSCE practice.
What is the OSCE mode?
You take a history out loud from an AI patient who answers like a patient — in Egyptian Arabic by default, or English when you ask. Your mark scheme is graded when you finish. OSCE practice is in the paid plans.
Who can see what I upload?
Your Ink notes and notebooks are private. Lectures you upload are shared with your university’s library so classmates can reuse them, and they stay there if you delete your account, because other students depend on them.
Where can I use it?
On the web at app.panicbank.com, and in the iPhone and iPad app on the App Store. On Android, install the web app from your browser; there is no native Android app. One account works everywhere.
The branch is open. It always is.
Opening an account takes less time than the guilt already has.
Free to open. No card. You can close it whenever the panic passes.
