Logbook is the resident's personal case log: record each case in seconds, watch your syllabus progress update itself, and prepare before every procedure. Log cases in seconds Record each case as you go — procedure, date and your own notes — and your training progress updates automatically. Syllabus tracking and milestones See syllabus coverage, pace and the requirements left to complete, based on your own residency program, all in one place. Prepare before the procedure Plan a procedure ahead of time and get a focused set of prep questions right when you need them. Practice with spaced repetition Questions with explanations, a daily review queue, custom practice by chapter and date, and a one-tap "10 questions I got wrong" set. Your results are visible only to you. Streaks and weekly suggestions A daily activity streak on your home screen and a weekly suggestion for the chapter to strengthen. Logbook is your own training record. No patient data, ever. Part of the ClinSync suite. For residents only — not a diagnostic tool, not a substitute for medical advice, and not a clinical decision-support tool.
