Acronyms and abbreviations should be used sparingly. In most cases, unabbreviated names should be used, and acronyms may be added in brackets. Exceptions are listed below.

Permitted abbreviations and acronyms

• All SI units may be abbreviated
• Terms that are rarely called by their unabbreviated names, e.g.
  • anti-CCP antibodies
  • IgG, IgA etc.
  • Beta-hCG
• All chemical elements may be abbreviated
  • All ions should have their appropriate charge in superscript

Spelling should be based Australian English. Medical terms with variant spelling should primary be based on the Australian Health Thesaurus (Health Direct) https://thesaurus.healthdirect.org.au/aht.html.

If not listed in the above, please refer to the https://www.oxfordreference.com/display/10.1093/acref/9780198836612.001.0001/acref-9780198836612 as a secondary reference for any gaps.

Please use this reference to check spelling for medical words that have varied spelling in North America and the United Kingdom or in medicine and common parlance e.g. fetus vs foetus, osteopaenia vs osteopenia etc.

Spellchecker add on

For spellcheck functionality in Anki:

1. Add the addon:143753963 (ankiweb.net/shared/info/143753963)
2. Open the addon settings and add the dictionary English (UK) (the English (Australia) dictionary is currently a combination of UK and US, and doesn’t work perfectly )

   

3. For Australian medical spelling, download the following file,
4. Add this file to the ‘Personal dictionaries folder’:

1. Press the ‘Compile your dictionaries’ button
2. You should now have a functional Australian medical spell-check function in Anki

We extend huge thanks to Health Direct, who compile the Australian Health Thesaurus https://thesaurus.healthdirect.org.au/aht.html, for allowing us to access a copy of their repository for this function. The data is licensed under https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/.

N.B. the AHT has been converted into list form to work with this add-on and some errors may be included. Please advise us of any errors.

For clarity, a few notable stylistic points include:

• ‘e.g.’ and ‘i.e.’ instead of ‘eg’ and ‘ie’
  • Commas should not follow e.g. or i.e.
• Leave a space between numbers and units
  • e.g. 10 mmHg, not 10mmHg
  • e.g. > 60%, not >60%
• Use an en dash for intervals
  • e.g. 9–10 mg, not 9-10 mg
• Single quotation marks, not double quotation marks should be used by default, e.g. Personality disorder clusters can be remembered by 'weird, wild and wacky'
• Eponymous names
  • A possessive s should be used if the disease is named for someone who had the disease e.g. Lou Gherig’s disease
  • No possessive s should be used if the disease is named for someone who studied the disease e.g. Alzheimer disease
• Infectious diseases and other biological terms
  • Names of organisms should be italicised, with the genus capitalised, e.g. Mycobacterium tuberculosis
  • Sp. and spp., following organism names should be written as such, with no italicisation e.g. Vibrio spp.
  • Organisms may be abbreviated, e.g. M. tuberculosis
  • Viruses are not italicised nor capitalised, except in the acronym form, e.g. herpes simplex virus (HSV)
• Drug brand names should be capitalised, e.g. The drug pregabalin is also called Lyrica

Synced fields were introduced in late December 2025 to try and optimise the application of content relevant across multiple cards, with ‘shared’ content updating across all cards uniformly when edited. These fields (below) are collapsed by default for the majority of users and do not appear in normal Anki searches, although if you downloaded the deck prior to December 2025, it may appear slightly differently (see ‘Legacy Users’ below).

Notion Databases

All synced extra and synced additional resources should be within the Synced Extra and Synced Additional Resources databases respectively.

Content for syncing can be added to either the body of the database entry (e.g. ACS Comparison Table ) or into the content field (e.g. Catatonia Clinical Features). Where both entries contain text, the body of the page takes precedence. Most formatting for the body can be incomperated including lists, numbered lists, formatting, maths blocks and highlighting. You can also use a code block with the html language to insert verbatim html code should it be required. A template for notesync (see below) exists Notesync Template should you decide to use. As general advice, it would be nice to include a level 1 header at the top of each synced content which would assist differentiating it from other content.

Other fields that need filling out are:

• Subject relation property which links to the topics/disease pages for which the content is related to
• Subtag dropdown property which identifies for which subtags the content should be included for. Multiple subtags can be added by typing them out manually (e.g. ‘Clinical Features Management’). In the case of general pages use ‘Main Tag’ as the value.

Now for all users when creating new cards or updating any tags through the Malleus addon it will include synced additional resource content automatically and prompt users for the synced extra content that they would like to include.

Note that tags for the synced extra content is handled via the addon.

My general advice would be to use the synced extra content sparingly, as adding it to many cards will add unnecessary prompts for users.

Malleus Anki Addon Integration

When applicable the addon will ask the user if they’d like to include relevant synced extra content through a popup:

• Note that synced extra content already in the field will be selected by default and removing it will remove that synced extra content

NoteSync (Maintainers Only)

Content in these fields is automatically copied across multiple cards using the ‘NoteSync’ plugin. Content appears seamlessly after the Extra content in the case of ‘Extra (Synced)’ or after any Additional Resources content in the case of ‘Additional Resources (Synced). It is critically important you do not alter these fields unless advised to by a Maintainer.

The way NoteSync works is outlined on the Add-on’s GitHub repository page here: https://github.com/Jirixek/anki-notesync. Essentially, we recommend using bidirectional mode (that is - any edit within synced content applies across all synced content).

To use the bidirectional mode, wrap the content inside a sync element like this. Again, the wrapping has to be done inside the window editing the raw text (HTML editor).

<span class="sync">
   [content to sync]
</span>

A unique sync ID is generated for the sync block when the field is unfocused.

<span class="sync" sid="XXXX">
   [content to sync]
</span>

To reference the content on another note, insert the span block where necessary.

<span class="sync" sid="XXXX"></span>

The sync blocks are synchronized when the field is unfocused. In case of a conflict, either a pop-up is shown requesting a resolution, or the contents of a sync block are uploaded to other sync blocks in a collection. The behavior can be controlled by setting bidir_unfocus_action value in the plugin's config to ask or upload, respectively. We recommend advising Maintainers to set the config to ‘upload’ once familiar with how the add-on works.

We are currently drafting the best way to use NoteSync including the possibility of better integrating the code within our Malleus Anki Add-on and having a separate Synced Content database, but it’s important that:

• All cards with [X] synced content have the dedicated tag: #Malleus_CM::#Card_Content::NoteSync::[X]
• ‘X’ should be named based on the content e.g. ‘Catatonia’, ‘ACS’.
• Any edits to ‘X’ Synced Content are batch submitted for review to AnkiHub by making a change on one card (any card) and selecting all cards (CTRL+A) that have a NoteSync tag and submitting to AnkiHub for approval (autoapprove although create an accompanying discord forum post on the #card-discussion-forum if it’s a controversial change)
• Any new cards created on an existing topic with pre-existing synced content are assigned the ‘NoteSync ID’ wrapper code of the relevant content when making cards into the relevant ‘Extra (Synced)’ and ‘Additional Resources (Synced)’ fields
  • Note the requirement to ‘unfocus’ (that is - create the card, then unselect and reselect the newly created card in the browser) from the card BEFORE submitting the card to AnkiHub as the synced content will not appear until this is performed

For all commonly used drugs and medications, as a general rule, you may include route of administration if it is clinically relevant, but DO NOT include doses, brand names nor timings in cloze answer fields. Route of administration can be abbreviated according to nationally accepted medical abbreviations guide or if listed in our own Accepted Abbrevaations table.

• e.g. write ‘valaciclovir PO’ not ‘valaciclovir PO 1 g mane’

However, there are certain drugs which are frequently charted as an intern/JMO where adding a dose would be relevant and helpful. The broad areas where it may be appropriate to add a dose includes (but is not limited to):

• commonly prescribed analgesic regimens (i.e. paracetamol 500 mg, ibuprofen 400 mg)
• commonly prescribed anti-emetics (i.e. ondansetron 4-8 mg PRN)
• VTE prophylaxis anticoagulant regimens
• commonly prescribed antihyperglycaemics (i.e. metformin 500 mg BD)
• commonly prescribed antihypertensives
• emergency drugs (i.e. aspirin 300 mg in ACS, adrenaline 0.5 mg dosing in anaphylaxis)

If you are unsure, submit as you feel most appropriate, and the Malleus Maintainers will review your card and make a collective judgement on how to best deal with it prior to approval.

Capitalisation

Drug names should only be capitalised if they start a sentence. Brand name drugs e.g. Panadol, Xanax etc. should always be capitalised. Where multiple drug regimens are listed, each regimen should be considered as a new sentence (and hence the first word should be capitalised).

Formatting of drug regimens

The words AND, PLUS, OR, EITHER, or BOTH should be used to make the combination of different drugs clear. These words should be in capital letters, underlined and italicised.

The formatting of drug regimens should make the card as legible as possible. See below for the formatting of drug regimens as card answers:

Complex regimens

In complex regimens, ad hoc formatting may be required to unsure clarity. When making cards on complex regimens, it is generally recommended that each line represents a different part of a given regimen i.e. a three drug regimen should typically have three lines, such as in the below card. A numbered list may also be helpful to ensure clarity of the number of agents used. For example:

Consistent usage of bolding and underlining can improve readability of cards and reduces misreading of questions.

General Formatting Template

Generally, use bold for the topic/disease and use underline for most important parts of a given question. See below for more specific usage.

💡

Bolding

Bolding should be used to draw attention to key parts of the question. Generally, these key parts are:

• Topic words or key words
• Augmenting words, especially when cards of near-identical layout exist

💡

Underlining

Underlining should be used sparingly. It can be used:

• To indicate the specific thing that the question is asking. See examples below.
• Augmenting words, that are already bolded.

💡

Italics

Italics is ineffective for emphasis. It should generally only be used for naming of genus and species e.g. Staphylococcus aureus.

Capitalisation

Please maintain consistent capitalisation. Capitals are only for names and the start of sentences.

In the extra field, please capitalise the first letter of each sentence in the extra section.

Period Formatting

Do not use full stops/periods for single sentences or bullet points, except for paragraphs with more than one sentence.

This is an example of correct formatting:

Whenever there are TWO or more sentences or paragraphs in the extra section, please use an unordered list (using the bullet point button or ctrl+[ shortcut on Windows).

CORRECT formatting

INCORRECT formatting

Cloze deletions

For suggestions relating to an increase or decrease (e.g. ‘diabetes {{c1::increases}} glucose’) the preference would be for a cloze hint of ‘increases/decreases’, in that order, like so: ‘diabetes {{c1::increases::increases/decreases}} glucose}}’. This is unless the potential answers are obvious.

Disease Name Formatting

When listing the full name of the disease and the abbreviation in parenthesis, bold the actual disease name and unbold the (abbreviation) as shown below.

Card with multiple answers

Generally, if a card/question has multiple answers, the cloze should have a number indicating the number of answers to the question.

Exceptions to this can be made on an ad hoc basis, including where,

• Cards where there is a small number of answers, or the card is too easy if the number of answers is provided

• Cards where it is important to remember the number of answers e.g. in the following example, where remembering the number of grades is important

• In some cases it may be more practical to use multiple clozes, each with the same cloze number (i.e. do not use different clozes for multiple answers to the same question)

One-By-One Card Guidelines

The general rules for one-by-one are as follows:

• The cards need to be able to be recalled in order - this means that there needs to be a mnemonic or a sequence of treatment
• The 5 P’s of pheochromocytoma can NOT be one-by-one because they all start with P and it will be impossible to do “ordered recall”
• One by one notes should not be done for cards that have 2-3 clozes, unless they are mnemonics

Mnemonic Formatting

Mnemonics should be formatted like this, and the card should be make into a ‘one-by-one’ card, by typing any text into the ‘One-by-one’ textbox while editing the card.

Table formatting

Tables can be added via copy and paste, or made manually. Please use this addon to add or edit tables: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/295889520

When adding multiple images to tables, strongly consider resizing the images inside, such that they are the same height or width, as this will affect the distribution of the table.

Please follow any addition of tables with the addition of the following tag:

Algorithms

Algorithms/flowcharts are sometimes used to explain decision making protocols or processes. Algorithms may be useful for multiple cards and can be copied from existing cards when creating new content.

Algorithms Table Method

1. Download this addon https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/805891399 12
2. Find algorithm to replace. Ctrl+Shift+X to get html of the algorithm → copy it
3. Search the html → flag all these notes (you’ll need this later to bulk suggest the changes)
   1. If you are shrinking images, best to shrink all of them so the html is the same. You can use this add-on: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1633333766 1
4. Create new table
   1. Click the T5 button in the editor
   2. Insert a table.
      1. You will want enough rows and columns to split cells for when the algorithm branches
      2. For example, if the algorithm splits into three sections you would need three columns, one for each split.
   3. Type contents in. Do NOT duplicate the table word for word (copyright issues)
   4. Go to table properties and set to these:

      ![Class one is important. ]

      image17944×704 63 KB

      

      Class one is important.

image18960×716 23.2 KB

5. Highlight the entire table → right click → cell → cell properties

    Change Horizontal alight to “center” and Vertical Align to “middle”

image19962×946 38.8 KB

    Change border style to hidden

image20960×942 26.9 KB

• FORMAT:
  • note table width can be made ~60-80% based on algorithm contents
  • Left align things as needed
  • Bold things as needed

1. Change all algorithm images to tables
   1. Copy text of image html. Also copy (or have handy) the text of the table html
   2. Notes → Find and Replace
   3. Replace all images with table
2. !IMPORTANT! - tag all of these cards with the name of relevant algorithm (either management or investigation).
3. Submit to AnkiHub as bulk suggestion (sync right before doing this)
4. Example:

Algorithm table before hiding borders

image221902×564 19.7 KB

Algorithm table after hiding borders

image231904×544 19 KB

Algorithm Builder (Website)

• You can visit https://app.diagrams.net and create amazing algorithms. You just have to get familiar with the different tools, but it takes less than 5 min to create any type of algorithm.
• One example was about tetanus prophylaxis based on the AMBOSS table:

image241828×1140 131 KB

image251818×362 67.7 KB

• Basically, all you need once you’re on the website is the “General” section
• You can choose shapes, text, etc. and the arrows are created by dragging the sites of the shape

💡 After you have created your desired algorithm it is best to take a *screenshot* of the final result. You can save it as .png as well, however, for me the quality was kind of bad as .png

All submissions require the following minimum requirements:

• Provide at least one acceptable source in the source field with a URL.
• Provide a last updated and date accessed statement in the source field.

An example of accepted source:

1. Follow this format:

Credits must be italicised and be font size 10pt

Option 1: Semi-Automatic with wrapper meta add-on (Recommended)

Use the Wrapper meta add-on (Code: 396502676). It will add a new set of buttons. Highlight the sentence, then click the “quote” button and it will add the styling.

Option 2: Manually with extended editor for field add-on

Use the Extended editor for field add-on, manually change to font size 10 and italics.

Guidelines Images

• Therapeutic Guidelines images
  • Cards that refer to Therapeutic Guidelines as a source should include the relevant subsection of the page in the ‘eTG Complete’ field
  • Only images from Therapeutic Guidelines should be placed in this field. Other images should be placed in the ‘Additional Resources’ field
  • Therapeutic Guidelines have provided generous permission to use content so long as screenshots of TG content are restricted to the content necessary to directly and safely answer the question
  • As a rule of thumb, information from Therapeutic Guidelines should not exceed the amount seen in this card:

    

• If a guideline images is included, a citation to the guideline must be included somewhere on the card. If it is the same source as used in the ‘Source’ field, then it does not need to accompany the image directly. Otherwise a citation must be placed with the image.
• All images submitted to Ankihub are automatically converted to WebP format. The largest size for a WebP image is 16,383 x 16,383 pixels. If the image is larger than this, it will need to be split up into multiple screenshots, or the image will not be visible. In these cases, the images should be formatted in the Anki field such that the width is the same for all images. This can be achieved with add-ons such as https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1593969147 or manually in Anki.

1. Install the Malleus Anki Helper Add-on linked here: Malleus Anki Helper Addon - AnkiWeb, as shown in the video below.

1. Watch the video series below for details on how to use the plugin.

1. Simply click the search button at the very top right of the website and search for the disease you’re after (e.g. Acute Otitis Media)

   

   📢

   Please note that when searching on Notion you can identify the relevant origin of the pages by the different icons.

   Most pages arise from the Subject Tags database, signified by the white stethoscope icon in the search (ie. Acute Otitis Media). If you are searching for a topic, rather than a specific disease (ie. Antenatal Care), you may come across a slightly different topic page, signified by the white info icon.

   The main difference between subject “disease” and “topic” pages is topic pages do not have terminal sub-pages (ie. 01_Epidemiology) like the disease pages, and usually (but not always) sit under *General tags. They are used to create cards on broad topics that do not fit neatly within individual single diseases (ie. Antenatal Care, Approach to the Seriously Unwell Child).

   Note that other pages from other databases (ie. eTG Complete Tags, Pharmacology) will also appear here… they each have their respective icon as well.

   As a general rule of thumb, if there is no icon on the page, it’s not a page you should be copying tags from (it is likely a parent page)!

2. Open the page and find the particular subtag that best describes the card you are adding (e.g. aetiology).
   💡

   Note the “multiple parents” means this disease page appears in multiple different subject areas (i.e. Cardiology and Paediatrics). Other details are available on this page for your reference, including status and last updated date.

   

3. Click the copy to clipboard icon that appears when hovering over the tag
   💡

   Please note that this will also copy over whatever other cards are relevant (e.g. the resources by rotation cardiology tag). This is to make it easier for you to add cards with all the correct tags. Other tags that might be included are Question Banks tags for questions relevant to the topic.

   

1. Open the Tags Database and go to the subject tags section

   

2. Unfold the topics until you find the disease you are looking for by clicking the triangular arrow head next to each topic
3. Click on the title of the disease (or topic) you are after to open it in the middle
   📢

   Note that most pages arise from the Subject Tags database, signified by the white stethoscope icon in the search (i.e. Acute Otitis Media). If you are searching for a topic, rather than a specific disease (ie. Antenatal Care), you may come across a slightly different topic page, signified by the white info icon.

This is to make it easier for you to add cards with all the correct tags. Other tags that might be included are Question Banks tags for questions relevant to the topic.

   

In addition to the default Subject and Resources by Rotation databses and tags when creating new cards, please click on the following links for the appropriate tagging structures for:

• Yield (high, medium, low, beyond medical student level - see heading below)
• Anatomy & Physiology (dedicated anatomy/physiology topics; mostly archived and replaced with subject-specific *General tags)
• Clinical Investigations (for ABGs, ECGs etc.)
• eTG Complete Tags (for relevant eTG topics which can also be linked directly within subject disease pages)
• Guidelines (national and state-based guidelines)
• High Yield Diagnosis (high-yield cards; spot-diagnoses based on pathognomonic investigation findings, history features etc.)
• Risk Stratification & Diagnostic Scoring Tools
• Mnemonics
• OSCEs & Clinical Reasoning
• Pharmacology (for all cards related to pharmacology or drugs in any way)
• Question Banks (notably eMedici)
• Textbooks (so far, T&OC’s Clinical Examination (8e), On Call: Principles & Protocols (ANZ), Mechanisms of Clinical Signs (2e), and Llewellyn-Jones Fundamental of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (11e) are complete databases with tags easily able to be copied and allow for cards to also map to certain key textbooks)

High-Yield

Essential knowledge to pass medical school and function safely as a junior doctor. This includes core exam content, universally applicable clinical facts, and foundational concepts that scaffold broader understanding.

• Patient safety pushes content high
• Foundational/scaffolding concepts are always high
• Even if the content is difficult to memorise but critical it is high-yield

Medium-Yield

Important knowledge that strengthens clinical practice or exam performance but is not strictly essential. Covers secondary facts, less common drug alternatives, cut-offs, or detail-level understanding that adds depth, but is not required for safe functioning.

• Good to know, but not essential
• May help you stand out as a strong student
• Patient safety relevance low-to-moderate

Low-Yield

Supplementary detail that a top student might know, but which is rarely tested and adds little to day-to-day safety or competence. Includes fine precision (e.g., exact numerical targets), obscure guidelines, or edge-case scenarios where memorisation cost outweighs clinical payoff.

Perhaps difficult-to-memorise facts with limited utility

• Retained mainly for completeness and to support mastery-level learning

Beyond Medical School

Content included for completeness or advanced learners, but beyond what medical students or interns are reasonably expected to know or memorise.

Yield as a Step-Wise Learning Tool

The yield system can be used as a progressive pathway through the deck. A student can start with the high-yield material to build the minimum safe and examinable foundation, and then expand into medium and low yield for deeper knowledge.

High-Yield as an entry point

A student would begin here to learn the bare-minimum and foundational concepts of a particular subject, which should allow them to pass an exam and stay safe.

Medium-Yield to increase depth

Once the above is complete, medium-yield cards can be introduced to further expand understanding and build on the previous content, adding detail and nuance. This should improve confidence in a topic.

Low-Yield for mastery

Finally, unsuspending the low-yield cards extends the content, which may be by increased precision or obscure detail, or by scenario-based application (e.g. Glasgow-Imrie Scale). This completes the topic and should allow the student to have the understanding of a top student.

Some tags are reserved for changes that alter the core fact or correct answer of a card. These are treated differently from routine updates. Use a Critical Note Update tag only when an edit changes the meaning or correct answer of a card, such that a user who learned the previous version would now be memorising incorrect or outdated information.

When to use this tag

• Fixing a content error
• Applying updated clinical guidelines
• Any change that reverses or materially alters the fact being tested

When not to use this tag

• Formatting or cloze changes
• Rewording for clarity without changing meaning
• Tag restructuring
• Spelling or grammar fixes

Tag format

#Malleus_CM::!CRITICAL_NOTE_UPDATES!::Content_Error/Updated_Guidelines::YYYY::Month

Example

#Malleus_CM::!CRITICAL_NOTE_UPDATES!::Content_Error/Updated_Guidelines::2026::January

Rationale

Because users may have long review intervals, these tags allow critical changes to be surfaced early and re-reviewed, rather than discovered weeks or months later.

Rule of thumb

If a learner studied this card before the update and would now be wrong, this tag should be applied.
