A log book is a documentary list of surgical and non surgical procedures.

Many hospitals which use Electronic Medical Records have a system to extract the number of cases a doctor has done. The list is helpful in showcasing your skills and is an essential requirement for employment in some countries. In low resource settings, doctors often have to maintain a register in which they can enter the cases manually. There is another option, however, and it is free. The Epicollect 5 application( Link to Epicollect) is a free and secure platform to record and retrieve any type of data.
