Training activity information

Details

Explore the evidence base for a diagnostic plan for a patient in a physiological specialty, and reflect the impact this has on practice

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 the role of national, regional and local guidelines
  • Reflect on adherence to, and deviation from, best practice
  • Consider relevant studies in the scientific literature
  • Reflect on the decision-making processes
  • Consider the multidisciplinary aspects of evidence base
