The American Board of Internal Medicine has called on directors of cardiology training programs to establish systems to evaluate, document and substantiate those components of overall clinical competence considered essential for certification in the subspecialty. Many of these can be assessed only by repeated direct observations. In particular, proficiency is now required in advanced cardiac life support including cardioversion, electrocardiography (including ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring) and exercise testing, echocardiography, insertion of arterial lines and right heart catheterization (including insertion of temporary pacemakers). The goal of this expanded evaluation program is to ensure that the public and the profession can identify, through certification, physicians with demonstrated excellence in cardiovascular disease.
美国内科医学委员会呼吁心脏病学培训项目主任建立系统，以评估、记录和证实那些被认为是该亚专业认证所必需的整体临床能力组成部分。其中许多只能通过反复的直接观察来评估。特别是，现在要求在高级心脏生命支持方面具备熟练技能，包括心脏复律、心电图检查（包括动态心电图监测）和运动试验、超声心动图、动脉导管插入术和右心导管插入术（包括临时起搏器插入）。这个扩展评估项目的目标是确保公众和专业人士能够通过认证识别出在心血管疾病方面表现卓越的医生。
