Introduction to the Program

Thanks to this certificate, you will learn about the updated indications and contraindications for using NIMV in a wide range of clinical situations”

NIMV is a relatively recent mode of ventilatory support that is continuously being researched to determine the benefits it provides in addressing different respiratory diseases. Studies in this area help to determine whether its application is advisable or not entirely suitable in cases of COPD exacerbation, ARDS, or Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema. Therefore, knowing the latest scientific evidence regarding its use in each clinical situation is essential for specialists aiming to stay at the forefront of medicine.

For this reason, TECH has chosen to design this program, which provides students with a comprehensive update on the use of Non-Invasive Mechanical Ventilation in a wide range of specific pathologies. Throughout this academic journey, you will explore cutting-edge indications and contraindications of NIMV in COPD, Congestive Heart Failure, ARDS, and EPID. Additionally, you will delve into the sophisticated adjustments of ventilatory parameters for each patient, taking into account the characteristics of their condition.

Since this Postgraduate certificate features an innovative 100% online methodology, medical professionals can update their knowledge without having to sacrifice their personal and professional commitments.
