FASP standards for 18+0 – 20+6 weeks anomaly scan The conditions screened for as a minimum in England Conditions Detection rate %) Anencephaly Open spina bifida Cleft lip Diaphragmatic hernia Gastroschisis Exomphalos Serious cardiac anomalies includes the following: Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) Atrioventricular Septal Defect (AVSD) Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) 98 90 75 60 98 80 50 Bilateral renal agenesis Lethal skeletal dysplasia Edwards’ syndrome (Trisomy 18) Patau’s syndrome (Trisomy 13) 84 60 95** **Detections rates will be reviewed following implementation of screening as part of the combined screening strategy FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017

NCARDRS The National Congenital Anomaly and Rare Disease Registration Service (NCARDRS) records those people with congenital abnormalities and rare diseases Historically 49% of births were monitored by 7 regional registers. Unable to provide comprehensive outcome data for screening programmes in England Capture data from all of England Via 9 regional centres • timely data collection • local and national data feeds • improved quality assurance • Benefits to individual patients, their families 9 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Performance thresholds Acceptable: Detection rate ≥ 50% for each serious cardiac anomaly shown above Fetal Anomaly Screening Programme Standards p 12; 2015 -16 This is the area that detection rate needs improving 10 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
FASP-Fetal Cardiac Protocol Rationale, Training and Implementation for the 3 VT view
FASP Fetal Cardiac Protocol Smart Survey 2012 Recommendations by the FASP fetal cardiac expert working group Evidence supports that routine examination of the fetal heart using additional 3 VV and 3 VT views will improve detection rates for cardiac anomalies Particularly duct dependent abnormalities Benefits Ensure babies get appropriate and timely care after birth Increase the national detection rate of major cardiac abnormalities give parents earlier choice regarding the pregnancy options 12 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
FASP Fetal Cardiac Protocol 13 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Training Needs Analysis Questionnaire survey carried out in May 2014 • Web based survey • 143 trusts across England were invited via screening support sonographers and screening support midwives • 123 trusts responded (86%) • All regions responded with a regional spread in non responders or no data. 14 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Which region is your screening unit based? 15 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Information gathered How many individual sonographers offer 20 -20+6 weeks scan? What current practice for fetal cardiac examinations in their trusts? What theoretical training provision they currently accessed? What practical training for the fetal cardiac views did they access especially the 3 VV AND 3 VT view What requirements they needed for further training 16 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Summary of results Majority of trusts (75%) were already incorporating 3 vessel views in their fetal cardiac survey. Small percentage (7%) currently using 3 Vessel and Trachea view (3 VT). 62% indicated they required full training and 33% require refresher training. 85% use FASP/FMF basic on-line resource for their theory training. Just under half of trusts (49. 66%) are using in house training. Most effective way of training is a combination of on-line training and practical in house training via nominated cardiac “Champions” 17 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
The project and training team 18 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Cardiac champions Local nominated sonographer Training support to develop and enhance skills in fetal cardiac scanning Will work with local sonographers to identify learning needs Cascade training to sonographers in their Trust Provide feedback to sonographers to review techniques and improve standards Liaise with other champions Named contact for tertiary referrals Improve communication 19 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Planned Fetal cardiac training 20 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Regional workshops Each trust nominate a cardiac sonographer to act as “Champion” Champions invited to attend regional workshop/s Lectures/forum to support New standards and evidence of detection rates Challenges & Solutions Identify practical session needs and support Opportunity to establish regional and national fetal cardiac networks Sharing experiences Resource package will be developed 21 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Fetal cardiac and 3 VT e-learning Champions were required to complete on line training before commencing practical training 22 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017

Evaluation of 3 VT training
Project evaluation The overall objective of the project was to support the training of sonographers to enable them to incorporate fetal cardiac outflow tract views as a routine element of the 18 to 20+6 week anomaly scan. Evaluation of theory and practical days Monitor the implementation of the cardiac protocol Longer term objectives were also identified i. e. To evaluate the detection rate of cardiac anomalies at the anomaly scan after the incorporation of the additional 3 VT view. To evaluate the referral rates and the false positive results on local and tertiary service provision. To obtain data for the FASP four main conditions Atrioventricular Septal Valve Defect(AVSD), Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and Transposition of the Great Arteries(TGA). 31 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017

1 st January 2017 139 (96%) had implemented, 5 Trusts still to implement 36 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
1 st April 2017 142 (98. 5 %) have implemented 2 trusts still to implement 37 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
Examples of how Trusts implemented the 3 VT View
Examples of sharing knowledge Self assessments for learning needs One to one training Peer training Group reviews Regular feedbacks Image audits 3 VT images stuck on notice board for dissemination. Visits to tertiary centres 39 FASP UK Fetal cardiac training project 2015 -2017
