Internship program Hyperbaric Medicine

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has become a highly demanded therapeutic alternative in today's clinical setting. Countless studies have shown that the application of high atmospheric pressure to the body, and the consequent increase in blood flow, can be widely beneficial to alleviate certain deficiencies such as diabetic foot, chronic wounds or sports injuries. However, this is a complex area that requires specialized and up-to-date knowledge in order to master it. Based on this, TECH has considered necessary to launch a Internship Program that allows the physiotherapist to catch up with the latest developments in Hyperbaric Medicine through a stay in an international reference clinic.

Introduction to the Program

Incorporate to your daily practice the most notorious and recent advances of Hyperbaric Medicine in the field of Physiotherapy"

In recent years, top athletes have been using Hyperbaric Medicine to treat their injuries and achieve a much more effective recovery. This led to greater visibility of this therapy, which, however, has multiple benefits such as vasoconstriction, fibroblastic stimulation, increased cellular immune activity or decreased oxidative stress, which allow its application in different types of pathologies and patients.

This is how this Internship program was created, a unique opportunity for the professional to become part, for 120 hours, of a team versed in therapeutic oxygenation through atmospheric pressure chambers. Thanks to this, you will be able to update your knowledge in the application of this technique, working with patients with different pathologies: deafness, ulcers, thermal burns, skin grafts, etc. In addition, you will be updated on the recommended guidelines for each case, with special emphasis on those in which treatment is not considered due to their clinical characteristics.

This is a unique experience, in which the graduate will have access to the most innovative and precise technology, and in which they will be able to actively participate in the management of patients. All this accompanied by a team of experts in Hyperbaric Medicine that will ensure, on the one hand, that they can get the most out of the program and, on the other hand, that all the objectives for which it was designed are met. That way, the physiotherapist will be able to complete the stay and face the work environment with the security and guarantee of knowing in detail the novelties of HBOT.

You will have access to a library of multimedia resources 7 days a week, 24 hours a day"

Teaching Objectives

The objective of this Internship program in Hyperbaric Medicine is to disseminate the usefulness of oxygenation treatment in the different clinical specialties, more specifically in the physiotherapeutic area. With this program, the specialist will be able to get up to date with the latest developments related to this therapeutic strategy: its indications, contraindications, usage models, times, etc. In addition, they will be able to perfect their skills in the definition, evaluation, and determination of the diagnostic and clinical approach in patients with chronic diseases of neuropathic, musculoskeletal, oncological and visceral origin.
