Hippo describes the content as self-paced and humor-infused, designed by pediatric experts to help learners make more effective use of study time.

Lighthearted Pediatric Board Review

Board preparation can involve dozens of subspecialties and hundreds of diagnoses.

The Hippo approach aims to make this volume of information easier to work through by turning complex pediatric subjects into more approachable learning sessions.

The overall educational pathway can be summarized as:

Review → Understand → Recall → Apply → Reinforce

54 Hours of On-Demand Video Education

The official Peds Board Review includes 54 hours of on-demand video education.

These videos provide broad coverage of pediatric medicine and are designed around topics relevant to pediatric board preparation.

Video-based learning allows learners to:

• Review complete pediatric systems
• Revisit difficult concepts
• Repeat high-yield material
• Pause for note-taking
• Combine visual and written study
• Structure preparation around individual schedules

The curriculum emphasizes recognizing clinical presentations and applying pediatric-specific diagnostic reasoning.

Precocious Puberty

The course includes:

Evaluation & Management of Precocious Puberty

This provides a structured review of a common pediatric endocrine board topic involving development, hormonal regulation, and age-appropriate assessment.

Delayed Puberty

Delayed Puberty is another dedicated endocrine topic.

Board candidates need to distinguish normal variation from endocrine or systemic disease requiring investigation.

Ambiguous Genitalia

The curriculum includes Ambiguous Genitalia, an important multidisciplinary pediatric endocrine and genetic topic.

This area may involve:

Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis – JIA is one of the central confirmed rheumatologic topics.

Learners review it alongside other inflammatory and autoimmune pediatric conditions.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Pediatric SLE is included within the rheumatology curriculum.

The board-review approach emphasizes recognition of multisystem autoimmune disease and its pediatric manifestations.

Juvenile Dermatomyositis

The curriculum also includes Juvenile Dermatomyositis, helping learners distinguish muscle and skin manifestations from other pediatric rheumatologic and neurologic conditions.

Neurology

The neurology section is extensive.

Confirmed topics include:

This supports detailed review of one of the most important pediatric neurologic board topics.

Cerebral Palsy

The neurology curriculum includes Cerebral Palsy, connecting pediatric neurology with development, motor function, and long-term care.

CNS Infections

Central nervous system infections are another confirmed area.

These conditions require understanding of:

• Clinical presentation

EENT – Eyes, Ears, Nose & Throat

The course contains a dedicated EENT section covering:

• Eye
• Ear
• Acute Otitis Media
• Otitis Externa
• Mastoiditis
• Nose
• Mouth
• Oropharynx
• Throat

These are common pediatric presentations and important components of general pediatric board review.

Acute Otitis Media

Acute Otitis Media receives dedicated coverage.

The curriculum also reviews related conditions including:

Clinical Findings → Murmur → Physiology → Diagnosis → Management

Pediatric Syncope

Cardiology education includes a clinical presentation-based review of Syncope.

This requires differentiation between common benign causes and potentially serious cardiovascular disease.

Pediatric Hypertension

Hypertension is another dedicated clinical presentation topic within the cardiovascular curriculum.

Chest Pain & Palpitations

The course includes combined review of:

Chest Pain & Palpitations

helping learners distinguish common pediatric presentations from those requiring more detailed cardiovascular evaluation.

Cardiomyopathies

The curriculum includes Cardiomyopathies, supporting recognition of structural and functional myocardial disease in pediatric patients.

Rheumatic Fever, Endocarditis & Myocarditis

Confirmed cardiovascular topics include:

• Acute Rheumatic Fever
• Endocarditis
• Myocarditis

These areas connect infectious disease with cardiovascular complications.

Dysrhythmias

Pediatric rhythm disorders are included as Dysrhythmias within the cardiology curriculum.

Pulmonology

The official curriculum contains a dedicated Pulmonology section beginning with:

• Clinical Approach to Respiratory Presentations
• Upper Airway Disease

The broader pulmonary review supports board preparation for common respiratory presentations and pediatric airway disease.

Pregnancy, Contraception & STIs

The curriculum also addresses adolescent reproductive medicine, including:

• Pregnancy
• Contraception
• Sexually Transmitted Infections

This reinforces the broad age range covered in pediatric medicine from infancy through adolescence.

Adaptive Learning Technology

One of the key features of the official Hippo Education platform is its adaptive QBank.

Hippo states that the QBank changes based on learner progress to provide more personalized study and test-taking practice.

The system incorporates features such as:

• Adaptive question selection
• Study Mode
• Test Mode
• Adjustable session length
• Adaptive spaced repetition
• Performance tracking
• Quiz history
• Performance metrics
• Peer comparison

These are official Hippo platform features and should not automatically be assumed to be included in the standalone MedicalAmboss Videos + Slides package.

1,250+ Adaptive QBank Questions

Hippo’s official support documentation lists more than 1,250 true-to-test questions following the ABP board exam format.

The QBank complements video learning through:

Question → Answer → Explanation → Performance Review → Repetition

Study Mode & Test Mode

The official Hippo platform allows learners to customize question sessions with:

• Study Mode
• Test Mode
• Adjustable session lengths

This allows learners to alternate between educational review and more exam-like question practice.

Adaptive Spaced Repetition

Hippo also highlights adaptive spaced repetition as part of its learning approach.

The goal is to revisit information at useful intervals to strengthen long-term recall.

Performance Dashboard

The official platform provides learner analytics including:

• Quiz history
