Description

It delves into the surgical complications of myocardial infarction and the techniques to treat them" 

##IMAGE##

Most patients present symptoms commonly known as chest angina or infarction when the coronary obstruction is severe, greater than 70%. Even those with significant lesions usually do not present symptoms, fortunately this is not the majority of cases presented. That is why this program reflects the study of the Physiology of Myocardial Ischemia and Angina and Infarction to follow with the diagnostic methods and natural history of Coronary Artery Disease.

Highlight the importance of the heart team in addressing different medical, percutaneous and surgical treatment strategies. As well as the surgical complications of myocardial infarction and the latest techniques to treat them. It does not exclude the analysis of the most significant randomized studies in ischemic heart disease, being an important part of the program's content.

In this way, the knowledge and understanding of Extracorporeal Circulation as a whole and the knowledge of the new technologies available for its management and control are expanded. All this, through an avant-garde teaching methodology implemented by TECH, aware of the difficulty that the specialist has when taking on a degree of these characteristics, which is why it offers it 100% online. 

This means that there are neither fixed classes nor fixed schedules, being the specialist themselves the one who decides where and how to face the teaching load. The contents are available 24 hours a day from day one from any device with an internet connection, and can even be downloaded for later offline consultation. 

In-depth study of the knowledge about the conduction system, coronary anatomy, great vessels and peripheral vascular system”   

This Postgraduate diploma in Coronary Surgery is the most comprehensive and up-to-date educational program on the market. The most important features include:

  • Practical cases presented by experts in Cardiac Surger
  • 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
