A rigorous and comprehensive program that will bring you up to date on anesthesia surgery and intensive care in congenital heart disease in pediatric patients, 100% online"

Abnormal heart formation during fetal development occurs in millions of children each year and the causes are still unknown. These congenital heart diseases can seriously affect newborn health, causing a wide range of symptoms: arrhythmias, cyanosis, respiratory difficulties, exaggerated tiredness, edema, etc. This type of disease in children requires specific management differentiated from that of adults based on their age and the degree of development of their bodies. Therefore, in cases where surgery must be performed, where anesthesia is required or where intensive care must be applied, specialists must act with special attention and following the recommended guidelines for each context. 

And in order to bring them up to date on what's new in this sector, TECH and its team of pediatric cardiac professionals have developed a comprehensive program that is perfect for this purpose. This is a 450-hour academic experience through which students will be able to learn, in detail, the advances that have been made in managing heart disease, cardiomyopathies and cardiac tumors, as well as the transition and the different conditions that may be encountered in the consultation room. You will also be able to update your knowledge in relation to the most innovative surgical techniques, as well as pre- and post-operative anesthetic management. 

All this 100% online and over a period of 6 months, during which students will have unlimited access to the Virtual Campus where the contents are stored. It is compatible with any device with internet connection, whether it is a PC, tablet or cell phone, allowing students to connect whenever they want, with no limits, no schedules and no face-to-face classes. In addition, the entire content can be downloaded for your convenience, so that you can access it even after the academic experience has been completed. Therefore, specialists will be able to keep up to date without neglecting their own practice, implementing the most innovative and effective strategies and techniques in the field of Pediatric Cardiology and Congenital Heart Diseases.
