Just email them at support.
I had a qeustion worng about medications use to treat and I choose lidocane because that is what fisher says but they had amiodarona.

Then I check the new ACLS and in the new acls it says amiodarona.

I now remember an example of such answers...
The question was ab conservative management of Lumbar disc herniation...In UW,they recommend early mobilization and practice of daily physical activities..whereas Bed rest is the first line of treatment in Kaplan&Crush

i believe that what physicians advise is 3 weeks of absolute rest then moblization right afterwards to avoid the so called functional LBP
