Training activity information
Details
Select the appropriate immunological assay(s) to investigate individuals with a history of recurrent, severe or protracted infections with the follow pathogen types:
- Viral
- Bacterial
- Fungal
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
- Pathogen informs the part of the immune system which is affected by deficiency
- Immunological assays to interrogate appropriate parts of the immune system that protect against pathogen types in an immunocompetent individual
- Relevant clinical investigations from other disciplines
