Training activity information
Details
Perform quality assurance of the doppler modes on a vascular system
Type
Developmental training activity (DTA)
Evidence requirements
Evidence the activity has been undertaken by the trainee​.
Reflection on the activity at one or more time points after the event including learning from the activity and/or areas of the trainees practice for development.
An action plan to implement learning and/or to address skills or knowledge gaps identified.
Considerations
- Doppler phantom selection
- Common clinical measurements and normal ranges
- Doppler penetration
- Doppler noise
- Measurement of % error in doppler measurements
- Intrinsic spectral broadening
