Improve your knowledge in Oncological Cardiology through this course, where you will find the best didactic material with real case studies"

Cardiac toxicity (CT) occurs in 30% of the millions of patients treated today for oncological processes. This is a "serious complication that usually debuts as heart failure and negatively affects the prognosis" of patients. The onset and severity of CT related to oncologic treatment are varied, depending mainly on each patient's individual susceptibility, the mechanism of action of the therapy, the capacity for early detection and the establishment of targeted treatment.

The objective of this course is to offer updated training in an area of current relevance from the clinical point of view, whose knowledge is advancing at a dizzying pace, focused on the training of professionals interested in the subject.

Cardiologists, oncologists and hematologists with special interest in this field have with this course the opportunity to complete and update their knowledge in oncologic cardiology. The final objective of this training will be that students learn the pathophysiological basis of the genesis of CT, as well as the ways to detect and treat it. Students will get to know, understand and apply the latest diagnostic techniques, and preventive and therapeutic measures specific to CT in oncology patients.

Emphasis will be placed on solving complex clinical problems by performing case studies based on real-life situations. In addition, it offers a unique opportunity to learn about the latest research advances in this high-demand field.

• Communication with the teacher and individual reflection work
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection
• Banks of complementary documentation permanently available, even after the course

This course may be the best investment you can make in choosing a refresher program for two reasons: in addition to updating your knowledge in Arrhythmias, Valvulopathies and Pericardial involvement in Cardiotoxicity in the Oncologic Patient, you will obtain a postgraduate certificate from TECH Technological University"

Our teaching staff is composed of professionals belonging to the field of Oncologic Cardiology. In this way we ensure that we provide you with the targeted capacitive upgrade we intend. A multidisciplinary team of doctors trained and experienced in different environments, who will develop the theoretical knowledge in an efficient way, but, above all, will put at the service of the Course the practical knowledge derived from their own experience: one of the differential qualities of this Course.

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodological design of this course. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of e-learning experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. This way, you will be able to study with a range of comfortable and versatile multimedia tools that will give you the operability you need in your training.

The design of this program is based on Problem-Based Learning: an approach that conceives learning as an eminently practical process. To achieve this remotely, we will use telepractice:  with the help of an innovative interactive video system, and learning from an expert, you will be able to acquire the knowledge as if you were facing the scenario you are learning at that moment. A concept that will allow you to integrate and fix learning in a more realistic and permanent way.

It includes clinical cases that bring the development of the program as close as possible to the reality of medical care"

You will have professionals in the sector to guide you throughout the training process"

This training aims to train highly qualified professionals for work experience. An objective that is complemented, moreover, in a global manner, by promoting human development that lays the foundations for a better society. This objective is focused on helping medical professionals reach a much higher level of expertise and control. A goal that, in only 2 months you will be able to achieve, with a course of high intensity and precision.
