Cardiac Cycle — week 3.pdf 42 pages

Add the actual material

Lecture PDFs, slide decks, scanned chapters, photos of the whiteboard. SwiftCards reads all of it — text and figures.

Focus on the physiology, skip the history bits. About 30 cards.

Steer it in plain language

Tell it what matters and what to skip. Not happy with a card? Ask for a change — it rewrites just that one.

Study in Anki, like always

Export a ready-to-import .apkg and open it in Anki — decks, cards and images arrive intact. No lock-in, no new study app to learn.

It reads the figures, too.

Most generators throw the images away and quiz you on the captions. SwiftCards finds the figure that matters, crops the exact region, and puts it on the card — so you learn to read the diagram, not just describe it.

  • Diagrams, charts, ECGs, anatomy plates, annotated slides
  • Crops the relevant region — not a screenshot of the whole page
  • Works from scans and photos, not just clean PDFs

Fig 4.2 — Lead II tracing during a normal cardiac cycle
cropped by SwiftCards
14 Image
What does the tall, narrow deflection in this tracing represent?
Back
The QRS complex — ventricular depolarisation. Narrow width (<120 ms) means conduction went through the normal His–Purkinje pathway.

Formulas and cloze cards, done properly.

Equations come out as equations — not mangled plain text. And when fill-in-the-blank really is the right card, SwiftCards writes a proper cloze deletion instead of a clumsy Q&A.

Formula cards
18 Formula
State the Nernst equation for the equilibrium potential of an ion.
Back
Eion = RTzF ln ([ion]out[ion]in)

Fractions, sub- and superscripts render as real math — and survive the export into Anki.

Cloze cards
21 Cloze
The […] node is the heart's primary pacemaker, firing at 60–100 bpm.
Back
The sinoatrial (SA) node is the heart's primary pacemaker, firing at 60–100 bpm.

Exports as a native Anki cloze note — one deletion per card, not a hacked question.

Written by a model that actually reasons.

SwiftCards runs on capable reasoning models, so it writes the card a good student would — one that tests understanding, not whether you remember the sentence.

What most tools give you
The Frank–Starling mechanism describes the relationship between ______ and stroke volume.
Back
preload
rote

A sentence from your PDF with a hole in it. You memorise the wording, not the idea.

What SwiftCards writes
07 Applied
A patient's preload rises after a fluid bolus. What happens to stroke volume, and why?
Back
It increases. More venous return stretches the ventricular wall, and a more stretched ventricle contracts harder (Frank–Starling).

The same fact, turned into a situation. If you can answer this, you understood the lecture.

Made for people who study from real material.

University lectures & PDFs

A 40-slide deck becomes a reviewable stack before the next lecture starts. Tell it to skip the admin slides.

Lecture 7 — TCP.pdf 40 slides PDF
03
What problem does TCP's three-way handshake solve that a single SYN cannot?
Back
Both sides confirm the other can send and receive, and agree on initial sequence numbers — preventing half-open connections.

Med & nursing school

Dense chapters, drug tables, tracings and anatomy plates — including the figures, cropped onto the cards.

11
First-line treatment for anaphylaxis — drug, route, and adult dose?
Back
Adrenaline 0.5 mg IM (1:1000), anterolateral thigh. Repeat after 5 min if no improvement.

High school & exams

Photograph the textbook page or the board. SwiftCards writes cards at the level the exam actually asks.

06
Why did reparations under the Treaty of Versailles destabilise the Weimar Republic?
Back
They drained state finances, fed hyperinflation in 1923, and gave extremist parties a grievance to campaign on.
