Evidence requirements

Evidence the observation or experience has been undertaken by the trainee.

Considerations

  • Local, national and international guidelines and standards
  • Signs and symptoms as described by the patient and in a request from a healthcare professional
  • Key features of the range of ambulatory/long-term ECG recording devices
  • The selection of a device for issue to an individual patient
  • Patient pathways
  • Device pathways
  • Clinical questions that require answering
  • The requirements to deliver patient centred care and support
