Details

Observe a diagnostic multichannel sleep study and reflect on the process

Type

Observational training activity (OTA)

Evidence requirements

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

Reflections on the observation or experience at two timepoints including contextualisation to the trainees own practice. E.g., for planned observations, a reflection before the observation and after, or for unplanned events a reflection one day after and another reflection a week later.

Considerations

• Reflect on the process, considering elements such as:
  • The impact on patients within the sleep specialty
  • How this impacts decision making
  • Principles of the methods
  • Reference ranges
  • Reporting limits
  • Calibration and quality measurements
  • The requirements to provide patient centred care
