Keeping up to date on Obstetric-Gynecologic Anesthesia procedures is key to providing better patient care"

The progressive increase of biomedical knowledge, the constant introduction of new technologies and the change in the conception of health, impose a constant evolution in the teaching of the different medical specialties, which must be addressed by professionals with a permanent attitude of continuous training that favors the maintenance of their skills throughout their future professional lives.

The fetus-maternal binomial imposes special conditions unique in our environment, to the extent that any therapeutic action has a greater dimension than that of women themselves. It is therefore necessary to update, based on solid science, the pathophysiological foundations of the maternal-fetal interaction, so that our therapeutic procedures are carried out with maximum safety for all.

This postgraduate certificate deals in depth with anesthesia procedures for both pregnant and postpartum women, with emphasis on the therapeutic adaptations required in each case and their new anesthetic needs.

You will be able to learn, through the latest educational technology, the most recent advances in Obstetric-Gynecologic Anesthesia”

This postgraduate certificate in Obstetric-Gynecologic Anesthesia is the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features of the program include:

• Clinical cases presented by specialists in anesthesiology and other areas. The graphic, schematic, and eminently practical contents with which they are created provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• Real high-resolution images of pathologies, diagnostic imaging tests and guided procedures
• Practical workshops on anesthesia procedures and techniques for women suffering from surgical pathologies
• Algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the presented clinical situations
• All this will be complemented by 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

This postgraduate certificate may be the best investment you can make when choosing a refresher program for two reasons: in addition to updating your knowledge of Obstetric-Gynecologic Anesthesiology, you will obtain a qualification from TECH Technological University”

The teaching staff is made up of a team of leading anesthesiologists, who bring to this training the experience of their work, in addition to recognized specialists in other medical areas.

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

Problem-Based Learning underpins this program design, and the specialists must use it to try and solve the different professional practice situations that arise throughout the course. For this reason, you will be assisted by an innovative, interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts in the field of psychology with extensive teaching experience.

Incorporate the latest developments in Obstetric-Gynecologic Anesthesia to your medical practice and improve patient prognosis"

It includes real clinical cases to bring medical practice as close as possible to the development of the program"

The main objective is to facilitate the incorporation of advances in obstetric and gynecologic anesthesia, so that specialists can update their knowledge in a practical way, using the latest educational technology and adapting the educational process to their real needs.

This refresher program will provide you with the skills to act safely in decision making during procedures in obstetric-gynecologic anesthesiology, and will help you grow professionally”
