Ghai's Textbook of Practical Physiology, 11/E for MBBS 1st Year Students | As per Revised CBME Curriculum (UGMEB/ NMC) | With OSPE, Viva Voce Q&A, Flowcharts and Physioclinical Correlations

Ghai's Textbook of Practical Physiology, 11th Edition is our thoroughly revised, curriculum-aligned practical laboratory manual for physiology, updated as per the Competency-Based Medical Education Curriculum of the Under Graduate Medical Education Board (UGMEB), NMC. This new edition brings every experiment fully in step with the latest CBME framework so that students learn exactly what their Phase-I physiology practical examinations expect. The book is organized into 7 comprehensive sections spanning over 80 structured experiments and topics - Hematology, Human Experiments (Respiratory, Cardiovascular, Special Senses, Nervous, and Reproductive Systems), Clinical Examination, Experimental (Amphibian and Mammalian) Physiology, Important Charts and Questions, Calculations, and Sample Problem Solving. Every experiment follows the same student-friendly protocol: Learning Objectives, Introduction, Principle, Apparatus, Procedure, Observations, Results, and Precautions, so students can prepare and perform each practical with confidence. We have built in features that go well beyond a plain lab manual: dedicated Physioclinical Significance sections bridge each experiment to its bedside relevance, Objective Structured Practical Examination (OSPE) checklists prepare students for current assessment formats, and end-of-experiment Viva Voce Questions consolidate exam-readiness. The 11th edition also includes access to Dr. Wise, our AI chatbot, along with video lectures, a question bank, and notes through the diginerve platform. Who This Book Is For: MBBS 1st Year Students: Use this as their primary hands-on physiology practical manual through Phase-I, following each experiment's structured protocol from setup to results. MBBS Students (all years): Return to it for quick revision of hematology techniques, human physiology tests, and experimental physiology concepts ahead of university practical and viva examinations. Why This Book Helps: Curriculum-current content: Fully revised to the NMC's Competency-Based Medical Education Curriculum (UGMEB) so students study exactly what is examined. Structured, repeatable learning: The consistent Objectives-Principle-Apparatus-Procedure-Precautions format removes guesswork from preparing for each practical session. Exam-format practice built in: OSPE exercises familiarize students with the checklist-based assessment style now used in practical examinations. Viva-ready: End-of-chapter viva voce questions consolidate the most commonly asked oral-exam questions for each experiment. Clinical context, not rote memorization: Physioclinical Significance notes connect laboratory findings to real clinical conditions, building diagnostic thinking early. Key Features: 7 sections covering 80+ numbered experiments and topics, from basic hematology techniques to amphibian and mammalian experimental physiology. Every practical structured with Learning Objectives, Principle, Apparatus, Procedure, Observations, Results, and Precautions. OSPE (Objective Structured Practical Examination) checklists included with practicals to mirror current assessment formats. Viva voce questions provided at the end of every experiment for structured oral-exam preparation. Updated diagrams, real graphs and recordings, flowcharts, schematic illustrations, and clinical photographs throughout, plus digital access to the Dr. Wise AI chatbot, video lectures, question bank, and notes via diginerve.
