With this postgraduate certificate, you will learn more about the most frequent arrhythmias derived from ACS and their most innovative and effective treatments”

Acute coronary syndrome can produce a varied series of complications in the patient, among which are arrhythmias. Likewise, this heart rate disorder can be identified with different clinical pictures and, therefore, needs a differential diagnosis and subsequent treatment for each case. That is why the specialists must handle all the information that allows them to act without delay in each situation and following the latest standards in the field.

In this context, qualifications such as this postgraduate certificate in Arrhythmias in STE-ACS, a program that will allow the physicians to update their knowledge and improve their skills in relation to the management of patients with this cardiac condition with persistent ST-segment elevation.

This program will delve into the most common ventricular tachyarrhythmias and their treatment, as well as sudden death and out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation. It also describes supraventricular arrhythmias and the antiarrhythmic drugs that are appropriate during a heart attack and which should be avoided. In addition, protocols for cardioversion and defibrillation therapies are discussed, and the results of automatic implantable defibrillators are detailed. Finally, it delves into the indications for pacing in myocardial infarction and reviews the most important issues and results of cardiac resynchronization.

This is a 100% online program, accessible from any electronic device with internet connection and in which the content will be available from day one. A program designed by experts in cardiology who, in addition to making available to the graduates the best additional content, will be available to resolve any questions that may arise during the academic process.
