UK-based healthcare professionals self-nominating as having specialist competencies in heart valve disease

The aim of the BHVS register self-reporting valve competencies is therefore to:

• Guide clinicians in planning training and CPD to gain competencies in valve disease
• Raise the standard of and reduce the variability in valve care by encouraging key quality measures
• Provide a set of information for patients to judge whether their care is run by clinicians with suitable competencies
• Guide commissioners on  components likely to reflect a specialist service
