The best trait of the game is that the players need to talk. Describe how they would diagnose sepsis, how they would treat it, what they would do if something went wrong.

It is stuffed with Latin expressions and figures of speech nowhere else used in daily life. Adjuvant therapy? Cerebellum? Cytotoxic drugs? Most of the times Google is more of our friend than the physicians in trying to explain it – as most of the times, they are explaining conditions and treatments with a lot of medical jargon. And even if you ask them about the foreign words, you either feel stupid or you get a response with a different jargon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Dr. Jargon by Focus Games aims to help improve exactly the communication of doctors to their patients in a playful way. The objective of the game is to remove jargon from explaining conditions, diseases, treatments. For example, you pick a card for example with the word migraine on it, while on the back of the card you also get 5 words to avoid. A brilliant way to force out jargon from the language of medicine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002F1712507217.rsc.cdn77.org\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2017\u002F08\u002Fdoctor-jargon.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16170\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2017\u002F08\u002Fdoctor-jargon.jpg 800w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2017\u002F08\u002Fdoctor-jargon-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2017\u002F08\u002Fdoctor-jargon-512x346.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \u002F>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4) \u003Cstrong>Healing Blade: the (board) Game of Thrones for learning antibiotics\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>As a medical student, you have to memorize plenty of information, which takes a lot of time and energy.
