Introduction to the Program

Actualízate en Arthropathies and Tendon Injuries of the Hand en tan solo 6 meses”

 

Autores como Kessler, Kleiner o Brunelli ya trataron hace cerca de 50 años las roturas tendinosas y preconizaban diversas técnicas y distintos protocolos de rehabilitación. Un camino que ha seguido desarrollándose gracias a estudios que se han adentrado en el perfeccionamiento de dichos tratamientos, mejorando con ello una patología muy frecuente. En paralelo, las investigaciones científicas han favorecido la recuperación de pacientes con enfermedades reumatológicas, existiendo, no obstante, diversos retos para los cirujanos de Mano.

En este escenario, es esencial que los especialistas mantengan una continua puesta al día de sus habilidades diagnósticas y terapéuticas para ofrecer a los pacientes las soluciones más avanzadas y adecuadas a cada uno de ellos. Por esta razón, TECH ha diseñado esta titulación 100% online que ofrece el contenido más riguroso y actual sobre las Arthropathies and Tendon Injuries of the Hand

Una Postgraduate diploma, cuyo temario ha sido elaborado por expertos de primer nivel en este campo. Su acumulada experiencia quirúrgica y en el ámbito docente le llevará al egresado a realizar una efectiva puesta al día sobre las evidencias en torno al abordaje de la Artritis Inflamatoria y Artrosis Degenerativa de Muñeca y Mano o las Tendinopatías. Asimismo, profundizará de manera dinámica en el estudio y diagnóstico de la patología de mano, las diferentes técnicas anestésicas empleadas durante las cirugías y los tratamientos rehabilitadores disponibles para el manejo de las distintas afecciones.

Todo ello, a través de material didáctico basado en vídeo resúmenes de cada tema, vídeos en detalle, lecturas complementarias y casos de estudio a los que tendrá acceso, cómodamente, cuando y donde desee.
