Training activity information
Details
Review tests which have failed next generation sequencing (NGS) quality control metric thresholds, and identify the reason for failure and downstream consequences
Type
Entrustable training activity (ETA)
Evidence requirements
Evidence the activity has been undertaken by the trainee repeatedly, consistently, and effectively over time, in a range of situations. This may include occasions where the trainee has not successfully achieved the outcome of the activity themselves. For example, because it was not appropriate to undertake the task in the circumstances or the trainees recognised their own limitations and sought help or advice to ensure the activity reached an appropriate conclusion.
Reflection at multiple timepoints on the trainee learning journey for this activity.
Considerations
- How QC metric thresholds are reviewed
- The role quality control plays in ensuring laboratory services meet national standards of quality and safety
- requirements for describing quality control in diagnostic reports
- The implications of quality on patient care
