Introduction to the Program
Improve your knowledge in Hepatitis, Tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS Infection through this program, where you will find the best didactic material with real clinical cases. Learn here about the latest advances in the specialty to be able to perform a quality medical practice"
Infectious diseases are re-emerging as a top priority worldwide, and to meet the needs of the 21st century, health care professionals must have a solid understanding of clinical infectious diseases.
In this case, we will focus on the study of hepatitis, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS infection. These three diseases continue to spread among the population and that, depending on the cases, may present different symptoms among those affected.
It should be noted that tuberculosis is one of the world's most serious infectious problems, with some 8 million new cases per year and more than 1 million deaths, with 20% of the cases connected to HIV/AIDS infection, with problems of resistance to treatment and lack of compliance with treatment, which led the WHO to consider tuberculosis a world health emergency in 1993.
On the other hand, there is VIH/AIDS, the great pandemic, with more than 1.8 million adults dying in 2016 and more than 600,000 children under 15 infected in a single year, and for which current treatment (as well as prevention of vertical transmission) is beyond the reach of many in developing countries, with numerous cases of resistance to the antiretroviral drugs used already detected.
Therefore, health professionals, regardless of where they work, can see in this Postgraduate certificate the opportunity to take a teaching program that compiles the most advanced and in-depth knowledge of the most important health problems in the field of infectious diseases and their treatments.
