Hi, i am lasya, 5th Sem Medical Student. This is an online e-log book to discuss our patient's health data shared after taking his/her/guardian's consent. This also reflects patients centered care and online learning portfolio. Here we discuss our individual patient's problems through series of inputs from available global online community of experts with an aim to solve those patients clinical problems with collective current best evidence based inputs. Hope this will be informative!
