This training will provide you with a sense of security in medical practice, which will help you grow personally and professionally”

This postgraduate diploma in the field of cardiology is one of the areas of great research activity, which leads to the frequent emergence of new studies, reviews, clinical practice guidelines, etc. that modify or should modify the management of patients with acute heart disease. Updating in this area is essential for non-cardiologists who work in a setting where they have to treat this patient profile, for cardiologists who are not in day-to-day contact with the acute patient but need to be competent in it, or for cardiologists interested in developing specific training in it.

The program of this postgraduate diplomais structured in a clear way that allows an orderly approach to each topic for the student. The modules are divided in a simple way, focusing on each one of the main groups of acute heart disease. They are taught by professionals who combine their high academic skill level with their teaching experience and their dealings with critical cardiology patients. The learning tools available to the student and the texts are fully updated and oriented to the development of competencies directly applicable in clinical practice. The structure of the postgraduate diploma includes both more theoretical content and updating in diagnosis and medical management, as well as other contents aimed at facilitating the acquisition of practical skills by students. One module of the postgraduate diploma is entirely dedicated to the development of practical skills and mastery of essential techniques in the management of the critically ill cardiovascular patient. A second module is focused on developing the essential skills for performing and interpreting echocardiograms (ECG), and their correlation with the patient’s clinical situation, to make decisions on the treatment and management of the patient.

The program is aimed at encouraging and enabling the development of essential skills in the management of a patient with acute heart disease. The student profile that will benefit from taking this postgraduate diploma is that of those who need training or updating in the management of this type of patient, mainly intensivists or anesthesiologists who handle patients with heart disease, cardiologists who do not have daily contact with acute patients but who need to be up to date in their management because they are on call, or cardiologists interested in deepening and perfecting their skills in the management of patients with critical heart disease.
