Training activity information
Details
Perform the fluid analyses involved in the detection of major organ disease and cancers to laboratory standard operating procedures to include:
- Cyst fluid
- Chylomicrons
- Pleural fluid
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
- Local and national training guidelines, including standards and pathways
- Method selection, including assay advantages and limitations, quality parameters, and interference
- Equipment calibration and maintenance
- Quality control; EQA and IQC
- National and international guidelines
