Background Logbook is a tool for recording daily clinical examination reports and clinical skills activities. The present study aims to investigate the perceptions of medical students regarding the use of logbook in clinical departments of teaching hospitals affiliated to Jahrom University of Medical Sciences (JUMS).
Methods This is a descriptive cross-sectional study that was conducted on 94 students of JUMS in 2023. The data collection tools included a sociodemographic form and a questionnaire measuring the quality and necessity of the logbooks. Data analysis was done in SPSS software, version 21 using descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results The mean total score of perceptions about the logbook was 46.5±26.16 (out of 100), which is below the average level (cut-off point of 50). The scores about necessity, quality, and outcomes of using logbooks were also below the average level. The results of a non-parametric test showed that medical students' opinions about the use of logbook in clinical departments was not significantly different based on the sociodemographic characteristics (P>0.05).
Conclusion The JUMS students’ perceptions about the use of logbooks in clinical departments is below the average level. To improve the situation, it is necessary to pay special attention to the design and format of logbooks, the necessity of using the logbooks, and the quality of the logbook content.
