General Information

Overview

On completion of this unit, you will be able to evaluate the evidence base for haematological tests used in the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases in the major organ systems of the body. Problem-solving and decision making skills will be developed through the use of authentic case studies. Skill development in instrument calibration, best practice measurement, interpretation of test results and test quality control monitoring will occur through practical exercises. You will be required to attend a compulsory residential school on the Rockhampton campus to promote the development of unit learning outcomes. The residential school may be scheduled outside of the term of offering of the unit.
