Training activity information
Details
Follow patient bioinformatics data through the healthcare pathway and reflect on the journey
Type
Observational training activity (OTA)
Evidence requirements
Evidence the observation or experience has been undertaken by the trainee.
Reflections on the observation or experience at two timepoints including contextualisation to the trainees own practice. E.g., for planned observations, a reflection before the observation and after, or for unplanned events a reflection one day after and another reflection a week later.
Considerations
- Consider referral, family history, clinical decision, testing strategy, samples submission, clinical coding strategy, laboratory workflow including LIMS interface, analysis, interpretation and reporting of results, communication of results, and implication of results for the patient and family (request to reporting cycle)
- Appreciate the decision points in the patient pathway, both patient and clinical decisions, and the role of electronic patient records
