NMC eLogBook for PG residents
One direct answer: residents log clinical activity as it happens, and it's reviewed by faculty on a monthly cycle — whether you're an intern, a PG resident, or in a super-speciality program.
MBBS & internship
Ward postings, OPD exposure, bedside teaching and procedural skills logged against the CBME competency list, with faculty sign-off per posting.
PG residents (MD/MS)
Advanced procedures, thesis progress, seminars, journal clubs and teaching activity, documented weekly and verified monthly by the guide or HOD as PGMER 2023 requires.
Super-speciality (MCh/DM)
Detailed procedural logging and outcome tracking for higher-level clinical training, with the same faculty verification workflow.

FAQ
Is a digital eLogbook mandatory under PGMER 2023?
Yes. Under the Post Graduate Medical Education Regulations 2023, postgraduate and super-speciality residents from the 2023 batch onward must maintain a dynamic digital eLogbook, updated weekly and verified by their guide or HOD every month.
Which residents does NMC eLogbook support?
MD, MS, MCh and DM residents, across every specialty covered by the National Medical Commission's competency-based curriculum, along with their guides, HODs and institutional administrators.
What happens to records during an NMC or university inspection?
Every entry, remark and verification is time-stamped and role-tagged, so a complete, auditable record is available on demand for university examinations, NMC assessments and external inspections.
Is the platform available outside the hospital?
Yes. NMC eLogbook is accessible on the web, Android and iOS, so a resident can log a procedure or case immediately after a clinical posting from any device.
How is student and institutional data protected?
All records are encrypted end to end and stored on secure cloud infrastructure, with role-based access so only authorised faculty and administrators can view or verify a given resident's log.
