Thanks to this 100% online Postgraduate certificate, you will acquire the essential skills to effectively treat any Respiratory Emergency in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit”

According to the World Health Organization, Respiratory Emergencies are one of the main causes of admission to Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU), representing approximately 40% of critical cases. These events can affect any patient, from premature newborns to adolescents with chronic or acute respiratory conditions. 

Dealing with these situations requires not only advanced technology and state-of-the-art treatment protocols, but also a multidisciplinary team of committed and highly specialized professionals. Each emergency is unique, demanding a rapid, coordinated and expert response to stabilize the user and minimize long-term complications. Likewise, support for both children and their families is essential. In times of crisis it is essential to provide a comprehensive care environment, so it is necessary for physicians to be specialized in emotional intelligence. 

In this sense, TECH has designed this Postgraduate certificate to provide physicians with an in-depth knowledge of different pathologies, such as Bronchiolitis or Pulmonary Hypertension. It will also delve into Chronic Respiratory Diseases and the methods of care for patients with chronic respiratory diseases. Likewise, professionals will be prepared to face crisis situations, analyzing invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation, as well as Tracheal Intubation or Tracheotomy. 

On the other hand, graduates will be specialized through the innovative Relearning methodology, in which TECH is a pioneer, and which consists of the reiteration of the most relevant concepts for their internalization. In addition, they will be provided with quality, interactive and multimedia teaching material, through which they will be able to acquire an updated vision, from any electronic device with Internet access.

Update your knowledge through the innovative Relearning methodology, which consists in the internalization of the most relevant concepts through repetition”

This Postgraduate certificate in Respiratory Emergencies in the PICU  contains the most complete and up to date scientific program on the market. The most important features of the program include:  

• The development of practical cases presented by experts in Respiratory Emergencies in the PICU
• The graphic, schematic and eminently practical contents with which it is conceived gather scientific and practical information on those disciplines that are indispensable for professional practice
