Neonatology is a discipline in constant evolution, which is highly dependent on technology and new pharmacological treatments. This context makes the updating of procedures in neonatal critical care, both those performed in the Neonatal ICU and in other care settings outside the ICU (emergency units, primary care centers...), of paramount importance to maintain the provision of care based on the latest scientific evidence and to ensure the safety of the baby.
This program includes the most relevant topics about the organization of a Neonatology Service, as well as admission procedures, the application of neonatal resuscitation techniques if necessary or the approach to the most serious situations in the critical infant, such as cardiac disorders or neonatal shock.
The Postgraduate diploma in Neonatal Critical Care Nursing allows, in a practical way, to achieve this update of the most used procedures to contribute with quality and safety to the recovery of neonates, improve their prognosis and avoid the sequelae of severe pathology.
