Description
THE POST OF CLINICAL FELLOW IN ADVANCED ADULT ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY


The purpose of this post is to offer comprehensive training in echocardiography with particular emphasis on stress-echocardiography and 3D TOE.

Day to day duties will include performing stress lists, TOE lists, TTE lists, cardiology clinics and attendance at MDTs. The fellow will be expected to help supervise and support junior doctors, physiologists and specialist nurses. The trainee will be supervised by Dr Anita Macnab and will be exclusively based at Wythenshawe Hospital. There will be a commitment to provide in-patient care for cardiology patients under the imaging consultants.

The general on-call for cardiology middle grades is a 1 in 13 full shift rota with the other Fellows and the Deanery SpRs in the department.

On-call commitments will include supporting the primary PCI service and looking after cardiology in-patients, triaging and managing referrals and inter-hospital transfers.

Even though there is always a consultant interventionalist on-call, all middle grades at Wythenshawe need to be competent in basic cath lab invasive procedures such as left heart catheterisation, pericardiocentesis and temporary pacing.

Please see job description attached for further information.
