 Abstract Purpose Resident logbooks (RLBs) documenting clinical case exposure are widespread in medical education despite evidence of poor accuracy. Electronic health records (e.g., anesthesia information management systems [AIMS]) may provide advantages for auditing longitudinal case exposure. We evaluated the agreement between AIMS and RLBs for tracking case exposure during anesthesiology residency. Methods We performed a historical cohort study with anesthesiology residents (2011–2018, all of whom used a RLB contemporaneously with AIMS) working in a multisite academic health sciences network. The primary outcome

 was total case-load logging; secondary outcomes were volumes for seven surgical specialties (general, gynecology, neuro, orthopedic, thoracic, urology, and vascular surgery). Correlation of case numbers tracked by AIMS vs RLB was assessed using Pearson correlation; agreement was determined using Bland–Altman plots and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). Results Data from 27 anesthesiology residents were collected. Overall, mean (standard deviation) case numbers were generally greater with AIMS vs RLB [649 (103) vs 583 (191); P = 0.049). Total case volumes between systems had moderate correlation (r = 0.50) and agreement (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC], 0.42;
