Exercise Testing

Consent Process
Author Last Post

Jacqueline- At Henry Ford Hospital these exercise tests are run by CEPs and/or RNs. The staff running the test reviews the consent and counter signs. Starting this year all consents are electronic. Best wishes.

Hello fellow CEPs! Are consent process before exercise stress testing is currently under review and I have been asked for benchmarking information. Would anyone be able to share how informed consent for ECG stress, Echo stress and CPET is obtained? Specifically, who explains the test to the patient, and who signs the consent form? If anyone works with RNs and they do this that would be helpful to know as well, thanks in advance for any replies!!
