Training activity information

Details

Analyse, interpret and draft a clinical report for diagnosis and risk stratification of ALL, to include:

 

  • Gene fusion detection
  • Copy number assessment (ploidy and specific genes)

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

  • Principles of the molecular testing strategy, including targeted vs whole genome vs exome
  • IQC and EQA
  • Best practice guidelines for reporting, including recommendations for patient treatment and management, follow up, further testing or clinical trials, if relevant
  • Correct scientific and clinical terminology, including HGVS nomenclature
  • Communication of complex scientific information to the multidisciplinary team

Relevant learning outcomes

# Outcome
# 4 Outcome

Analyse, interpret and prepare interpretive reports for common haematological malignancies, including results for somatic variants, kinase domain mutations, minimal residual disease and post-transplant monitoring.

# 5 Outcome

Interpret the associated IQC and EQA of the laboratory tests for investigation of haematological malignancies.

# 6 Outcome

Practice with the relevant specialities for the diagnosis, monitoring and management of haematological malignancies.
