This is an online E logbook to discuss our patient’s de-identified health data shared after taking his/her/guardian’s signed informed consent. 

Here we discuss our individual patient’s problems through series of inputs from an available global online community of experts to solve those patients clinical problems with collective current best evidence-based inputs. 

This e-log book also reflects my patient-centered online learning portfolio and your valuable inputs on the comment box are welcome.
