Paraparesis of the lower limbs. Hello all, I am P.Vihar (Roll no 127) a student of 8th semester pursuing medicine at KIMS Narketpalli. Today I share, in this blog  my views and thoughts on a case   which our department of general medicine has shared, to help us achieve better understanding of the clinical cases. The link given below, is to the entire case details :- https://vaish7.blogspot.com/2020/05/medicine.html?m=1 MY VIEWS AND THOUGHTS ON THIS CASE.

Inpatient care Quality Improvement Project.   The Inpatient care quality improvement cycle started with the goal of improving patient care by identifying lapses, and checking progress in 4 domains of clinical practice that impact the quality of inpatient care namely;    ·        History taking  ·        Clinical/ physical examination ·        Lab and imaging data analysis ·        Full case analysis   Using the online learning portfolios of the students of 2016 batch; which was divided into 4 quarters; these 4 domains were graded based on performance from 0-4. I collected this raw data and processed the data to represent it statistically (quarter mean and cumulative mean scores). Thus enabling us to check for progress/ changes in specific domains and overall clinical practice.   After processing the data, I systematically entered the data into an excel spreadsheet and made relevant tables/ graphs to represent our findings.  These online learning portfolios were selected for cycle 3.
