Introduction to the Program

The best program on devices to treat arrhythmias: complete, up to date and adapted to the latest developments"

##IMAGE##

There is a wide and varied range of specialized devices available for the treatment of arrhythmias. The market currently ranges from pacemakers, which can detect unusual heart rhythms, to implantable automatic defibrillators, which are also capable of treating different types of tachycardias. These and other physiological stimulation techniques make this branch of cardiology an exciting but complex field, since there is so much and so varied information that it is difficult to study in its entirety.

That is why TECH proposes and launches this Postgraduate certificate in Devices to Treat Arrhythmias (Pacemaker, ICD and Resynchronizer), with the aim of providing the specialist the update of concepts while expanding knowledge and invest their time in a program at the forefront. This program not only has a quality syllabus designed by expert cardiologists, but also bases its teaching on the best techniques, using the most modern pedagogical tools.

In just 6 weeks, the student will learn, in depth, the techniques for implanting and monitoring the devices, their indications and operation. In addition, you will learn about physiological pacing methods, new developments and the future of the latest devices (subcutaneous ICD and leadless pacemakers) and you will be up to date on electrode extraction methods.

Following its relearning methodology, during this online program the most important concepts will be reiterated, thus facilitating learning efficiency, and allowing the student to internalize the information in a more natural way and without the need to invest hours in memorizing. In addition, the program will be available in its entirety in the virtual classroom from the first day.

With this Postgraduate certificate you will truly feel that you are investing in your future as a cardiac medicine professional"

This Postgraduate certificate in Devices to Treat Arrhythmias (Pacemaker, ICD and Resynchronizer) contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

  • The development of practical cases presented by experts in Cardiology
  • The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
  • Practical exercises where the self assessment process can be carried out to improve learning
  • Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies
  • Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
  • Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

With this program you will not have to memorize. Gradual learning, linked to its high practical content, will help you learn the concepts without even realizing it"

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from sector who contribute their work experience to this program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

In six weeks with TECH, you will be up to date with the best implementation and monitoring techniques"
