The work performed by emergency specialists is, without a doubt, diverse and hardly monotonous. In a single day, professionals may be faced with critical cases, where patient lives are at stake, as well as cases of highly infectious pathologies that put the health of others at risk. This requires an extremely delicate handling of the available equipment, as well as a detailed and rigorous knowledge of the potential high risk hazards involved. 

For this reason, knowing the volatility of the profession, TECH has designed this Postgraduate diploma, which aims to update emergency medicine professionals in two critical aspects within the field: High Consequence Infectious Diseases (HCID) and Advanced Life Support. 

Throughout the program, the main challenges when managing an emergency department will be reviewed, especially after the recent pandemic, where clinical safety and quality of care have acquired a predominant role. Specialists will also delve into the ethical and legal aspects and protocols involved in Advanced Life Support in both adult and pediatric patients, as well as the management of High Consequence Infectious Diseases in different situations and contexts. 

It should be noted that this is an online Postgraduate diploma, so students do not have to commute or adhere to fixed schedules. On the contrary, the program is totally flexible, so students only need a computer or mobile device with an Internet connection to be able to take this Postgraduate diploma at their own accord, so they can satisfactorily balance it with the rest of their daily obligations.

Postgraduate Diploma in High Risk Infectious Diseases (HRI) and Advanced Life Support.

High Risk Infectious Diseases (HRID) are infectious diseases and pathogens that are considered highly dangerous and require special control and additional prevention measures to prevent their spread. Some of these diseases include viruses such as Ebola, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever, West Nile virus, Hantavirus and other serious infectious diseases.

Advanced life support is specialized, advanced medical care provided to critically ill patients who are victims of traumatic situations or suffer from severe or chronic life-threatening illnesses. Healthcare professionals must have additional training in this technique as it requires specialized skills and advanced equipment to maintain the patient's life until more appropriate and specific treatment can be provided.

Update your knowledge of High Risk Infectious Diseases and Advanced Life Support.

When treating patients with HAIE, advanced life support may include critical procedures such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the use of mechanical ventilation devices, along with the provision of intravenous fluids and medications. In addition, special measures are taken to prevent the spread of infectious disease, such as the use of personal protective equipment, safe disposal of waste and equipment used in treatment, and disinfection of the health care environment.

Specialized care in the treatment of high-risk infectious diseases and the proper use of advanced life support are essential to minimize the risk of disease spread and ensure the survival of patients suffering from infectious diseases. Healthcare professionals working with these patients must be experts in these procedures and techniques to ensure the comprehensive and appropriate care that patients need.

TECH the world's largest digital university has this specialized academic program designed to provide an in-depth understanding of high-risk infectious diseases, as well as skills for the treatment and management of these diseases and advanced life support techniques in medical emergency situations. They will learn to apply this knowledge in practical situations and analyze the social, political and ethical implications of medical care in emergency situations.
