Summary
The GP Cardiologist will be responsible for assessing, analysing and forming a diagnosis and management plan for patients with known or suspected cardiovascular disease attending the Community Cardiology Clinic. Assessments will include a history, physical examination and interpretation of an ECG in almost all cases, and may include the integration of data from echocardiography, exercise testing, heart rhythm monitoring, and more specialized imaging, although a provisional report will be provided by the physiologist in all cases. The GP-Cardiologist will make a diagnosis, and communicate this to the patient and carers / family, and will make recommendations concerning, for example, lifestyle modifications, medications, need for further investigations, and need and location for follow up (whether with own GP, in community cardiology, or in secondary care). The GP Cardiologist will communicate the outcomes of the consultation to the GP and to secondary care, and will complete all necessary administration relating to the consultation and to the service, including requesting, reviewing and endorsing all results of investigations. GP Cardiologists will be responsible for triaging all cardiology GP referrals. These may be triaged directly to the community cardiology service, or to specific services within OUH. Where the referral can be managed without a face-to-face consultation, the GP will write to the referring GP with advice.
