Training activity information

Details

Perform appropriate manoeuvres to assess lead integrity

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

  • Limitations of unipolar sensing, damaged leads and device interactions.
  • Myopotential inhibition with associated programming options
  • Standard manoeuvers for the detection of myopotential inhibition
  • Sensitivity settings
  • Patient safety
  • Communication skills
  • Range of manoeuvres e.g., positional changes etc
