abstract = {Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease of respiratory airflow obstruction. There are > 80 tools to measure various aspects of COPD patients well.being. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability and consistency of CAT and clinical COPD questionnaire (CCQ) and their correlation with St. George respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ). Methods: A prospective observational comparative study was conducted for 6 months in the pulmonology department of a tertiary care hospital. The following questionnaires were employed to evaluate the state of health of COPD patients: modified Medical Research Council (mMRC), COPD assessment test (CAT), CCQ, and SGRQ. Consistency and inter.rater reliability of CAT and CCQ scales was performed by taking into account the scores of four assessors. Results: Of the 52 patients included, 96% were male, and 4% were female. Cronbach's alpha was 0.620 (CAT score) and 0.861 (CCQ score). The percentage of patients with an mMRC scale of grade 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 was 4%, 23%, 38%, 8%, and 27%, respectively. SGRQ showed a moderate correlation with CCQ (0.621) and CAT (0.652) scores. Conclusion: The psychometric properties of CAT and CCQ were consistent and satisfactory. Reliability and internal consistency of CAT and CCQ were good and can be employed easily for examining the health state of COPD patients.},

abstract = {Need has been the mother of innovation and with the global pandemic of the highly infectious disease COVID 19, there has been a paradigm shift from conventional teaching to digital mode of virtual teaching methods. This task has been achieved by using various platforms available on the digital network, the internet. This work describes the change in medical education, using student feed-back on various modules used in teaching during that period. The feedback survey was conducted online by using the available platforms. The Google forms were used as a survey tool for conducting this survey. The responses were collected from all implied consenting students attending the various teaching sessions across different years of training, belonging to our medical institution. All the participants were adult students attending a medical college. The response rate among the participants was 54%. The respondents were majority 184 (76%) female gender. Nearly 90% opted for Google Meet/classroom as a preferred online module. The choice of selecting this module among the students was found to be statistically significant as compared to other options. The selection was based on the virtue of attributes such as user-friendly application, user satisfaction, beneficial, appealing, less technically challenging, convenient and cost-effective nature. Hence to conclude we may imply to say that this study was unique in assessing the mind of the medical students against this novel e-learning based online mode of education which has taken them by surprise. Though the method is good, there is a lacking that it has; as compared to the conventional means of teaching. This may be used to revise and consolidate the teaching process but not as to replace the classical method rather it should complement it.},
