MALT for the ANZHPBA Post Fellowship Training Program
On this page
Usage
The use of MALT is no longer mandatory for ANZHPBA Post Fellowship Training in 2022. Fellows undertaking subspecialisation should check with ANZHPBA to ensure they are meeting the logbook requirements of the program.
Logbooks
Fellows undertaking the ANZHPBA Post Fellowship Training Program are no longer required to use the Hepatic, Pancreatic & Biliary Surgery MALT logbook for the duration of their training.
Fellows undertaking subspecialisation will still have access to existing logbooks such as the SET - General Surgery logbook and the Fellow - General Surgery logbook.
Supervisors
MALT uses the terms Nominated Supervisor and Alternate Supervisor. Supervisors can view cases for the Fellows they are supervising and provide comments on specific cases.
Nominated Supervisor refers to the hospital unit supervisor.
Alternate Supervisor refers to the surgeon in theatre with the Fellow, if present.
Individual cases do not require supervisor approval from within the MALT system (see approval process below).
Hospitals
Record cases done in all hospitals (both accredited and unaccredited).
Procedures
This logbook utilises the SNOMED CT-AU reference set with board reporting terms (XLSX 9.76MB) determined by the board.
Approval process
Cases move through a non-supervisory workflow progression from 'draft' to 'completed'.
- Fill in and save the case (draft).
- Ensure all cases are marked as complete (completed).
- Reports can then be generated on MALT data. Note that these reports are provided for personal use only as ANZHPBA is no longer using MALT. Fellows should check with ANZHPBA if they are unsure of the reporting requirements of the program.
