Thanks to this Certificate you will master the most advanced techniques in the early detection of chromosomal abnormalities and make a difference in prenatal care”

Prenatal screening is a fundamental component in the medical care of pregnant women, as it allows the identification of chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus, such as Down syndrome, Edwards' syndrome and Patau's syndrome, among others. These disorders can significantly affect the quality of life of those affected and their families. Given that the prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities increases with maternal age, and taking into account the increase in the average age of women at the time of conception, it is essential to have professionals trained in the early detection of these genetic disorders.

In response to this need, TECH Global University has designed the Certificate in Fetal Screening for Chromosomal Abnormalities, which focuses on providing health professionals with a specialized update in this field, covering both theoretical and practical aspects. Throughout the program, students will delve into the development of accurate and ethical chromosomal risk assessments through the use of different diagnostic techniques, such as ultrasound, biochemical analysis and non-invasive genetic testing. Additionally, the course addresses clinical management and decision making in cases of detected chromosomal abnormalities, with emphasis on communication and emotional support for affected families.

One of the main advantages of this course is its 100% online modality, which allows students to access the content and participate in learning activities from anywhere and at any time, eliminating geographical barriers and facilitating work-life balance. In addition, the course employs the innovative pedagogical methodology of Relearning, which promotes the acquisition of knowledge in an active and meaningful way, through the resolution of real clinical cases, group discussions and the application of self-assessment and feedback strategies. 

You will get the most up-to-date and practical view on non-invasive prenatal diagnostic methods”

This postgraduate certificate in Fetal Screening for Chromosomal Abnormalities contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

• The development of case studies presented by experts in Fetal Medicine
