===Conditions===

* [[Pseudohypertension|Osler's sign]] is an artificially high systolic [[blood pressure]] reading due to the calcification of [[atherosclerosis|atherosclerotic]] [[artery|arteries]]
* [[Osler's node]]s are raised tender nodules on the pulps of fingertips or toes, suggestive of [[endocarditis|subacute bacterial endocarditis]]. Osler described them as "ephemeral spots of a painful nodular erythema, chiefly in the skin of the hands and feet." Osler nodes are usually painful, as opposed to [[Janeway lesion]]s which are due to emboli and are painless.
* [[Osler–Weber–Rendu disease]] (also known as ''[[hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia]]'') is a syndrome of multiple [[blood vessel|vascular]] malformations on the skin, in the nasal and oral mucosa, in the lungs and elsewhere.
* [[Osler–Vaquez disease]] (also known as Polycythemia vera)
* [[Osler–Libman–Sacks syndrome]] is an atypical, verrucous, nonbacterial, valvular and mural [[endocarditis]]. Final stage of systemic [[lupus erythematosus]].
* Osler's manoeuvre: in [[pseudohypertension]], the blood pressure as measured by the [[sphygmomanometer]] is artificially high because of arterial wall calcification. Osler's manoeuvre takes a patient who has a palpable, although pulseless, [[radial artery]] while the blood pressure cuff is inflated above [[systolic pressure]]; thus they are considered to have "Osler's sign".{{citation needed|date=December 2019}}
*Osler's rule: States that a neurological defect has to be related to a specific lesion, in contrast to [[Hickam's dictum]], which states that the neurological defect can be due to several lesions.{{citation needed|date=December 2019}}
* Osler's syndrome is a syndrome of recurrent episodes of colic pain, with typical radiation to back, cold shiverings and fever; due to the presence in [[Ampulla of Vater|Vater's diverticulum]] of a free-moving [[gallstone]] which is larger than the orifice.{{citation needed|date=December 2019}}
* Osler's triad (also known as Austrian Syndrome): association of [[pneumonia]], [[endocarditis]], and [[meningitis]].<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Cheyron|first1=D. du|last2=Lesage|first2=A.|last3=Page|first3=O.
