Introduction to the Program

Las infecciones micóticas y bacterianas conforman un amplio espectro de estudio para los profesionales de la farmacia. Aprende todo sobre ellas con este completo programa”

Las enfermedades infecciosas siguen siendo la primera causa de mortalidad y discapacidad (pérdida de años de vida productivos) en el mundo. En 2016, del total de 56,4 millones de muertes en todo el planeta, el 33% se debió a enfermedades infecciosas, el 30% a enfermedades cardiovasculares y el 10% a cáncer. La lucha contra la enfermedad tendrá dos frentes simultáneos: las enfermedades infecciosas y las enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles. 

La compleja situación epidemiológica internacional en lo que va de este siglo, ejemplificada en la liberación deliberada de esporas de bacillus anthracis como arma de bioterrorismo para provocar en las víctimas que las inhalaron un carbunco pulmonar, la emergencia del virus del Nilo occidental como patógeno en los Estados Unidos, la epidemia del síndrome respiratorio agudo grave (SRAG), la epidemia de Ébola en África, la aparición de casos de fiebre amarilla en Angola, unido con la reemergencia del Dengue y Cólera, la aparición de nuevas arbovirosis en la región de las Américas, unido a la morbilidad por otras enfermedades infecciosas endémicas, ponen de manifiesto la necesidad sin precedentes de perfeccionar el proceso de formación y superación del capital humano para elevar la competencia y desempeño de todo el personal necesario para enfrentar los desafíos que suponen el control y enfrentamiento de emergencias biológicas, hospitalarias y de salud pública que garanticen la calidad y seguridad de la asistencia sanitaria a la población en cualquier parte del mundo. 

En este contexto, TECH lanza un revolucionario Postgraduate diploma en Diagnosis and Treatment of Bacterial, Mycotic and Parasitic Infections, que incluirá unas minuciosas Masterclasses impartidas por un prestigioso Director Invitado Internacional para profundizar en los últimos avances en esta materia.
