For medical professionals, Pschyrembel has been a household name for around 125 years, and students of psychology, biology, pharmacy, and other scientific disciplines also find the Pschyrembel Online database indispensable. This standard reference work, with its constantly updated technical terms, photographs, diagrams and tables, is essential not only for exam preparation, but also as a quick reference guide for clinical terminology later on.
The articles are written by specialists in the relevant field, reviewed by the editors, and continuously updated to ensure they reflect the current state of medical knowledge. According to the editorial team, each entry is designed to provide readers with evidence-based, initial clinical information on the topic in question within 15 seconds. In the top right-hand corner, you will find grammatical and etymological information on the technical term, as well as its English equivalent. Below the article, you will find links to further reading and official guidelines.
From the homepage, you can search either by using the search bar or by clicking the Fachgebiete (specialist areas) or Krankheiten systematisch (systematic overview of diseases) buttons. You can also click on Laborwerte (laboratory data) to access a list of the most important reference ranges for laboratory test parameters or Medizinische Scores und Kalkulatoren (medical scores and calculators) to access formulas and calculation tools for clinically relevant indicators such as the APGAR score and BMI.
Please pay attention to both the publisher’s and the university’s terms of use.
