Time management If the patient has any recent, relevant investigation findings, providing a brief statement to summarise these can add to the overall picture of the patient and prevent the repetition of unnecessary investigations. Also, if the patient has had these investigations completed previously, it is helpful to state how long the time between results is and any changes that have occurred.
