The new scenarios in intensive care medicine push us to propose new specialization programs that meet the real needs of experienced professionals, so that they can incorporate advances in clinical practice in digestive pathology in the critically ill patient"

Digestive pathology is closely related to the body's nutritional function, so proper nutrition in hospitalized patients reduces morbidity and mortality, which makes the prescription of proper nutrition one of the factors considered in the overall treatment of the patient. Nutritional therapy plays a key role in the medical practice performed in intensive care units, and has become a routine part of critical patient care. Likewise, it is directly related to the adequate management of glycemic values and, therefore, it is also associated with the prognosis of critically ill patients, especially in cases where parenteral nutrition is used, reducing the number of complications resulting from poor glycemic control.

This Postgraduate diploma in Current Management of Digestive Pathology in Critically lll Patients is oriented to update the knowledge of the specialist physician in digestive pathology in the critically ill patient and their nutrition. The student will be able to incorporate the advances in the management procedures of the most frequent and relevant digestive pathologies, such as pancreatitis or digestive hemorrhage, that we can find in patients in intensive care units, so that the physician can maintain quality in his daily clinical practice.

Scientific evidence increases the quality of medical care. Staying current is key to providing better care for critically ill patients with digestive pathology"

The Postgraduate diploma in Current Management of Digestive Pathology in Critically lll Patients contains the most complete and updated scientific program on the market. The most important features of the program include:

• Contains Clinical cases presented by experts. 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
• Diagnostic and therapeutic novelties on the care of patients with digestive problems
• Presentation of practical workshops on procedures, diagnostic and therapeutic techniques for infectious diseases and guidelines for transplant procedures
• Video lessons on different pathologies and how to approach them
• Algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the presented clinical situations
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

This Postgraduate diploma may be the best investment you can make in the selection of a refresher program for two reasons: in addition to updating your knowledge in the care of patients with digestive pathology in the intensive care unit, you will obtain a Postgraduate diploma from TECH Global University"

Its teaching staff includes leading intensive care physicians, who bring the experience of their work to this specialization, in addition to other specialists belonging to prestigious scientific societies.

The multimedia content developed with the latest educational technology will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive training program to train in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem Based Learning, whereby the physician must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the course. For this reason, you will be assisted by an innovative, interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts in Intensive Care Medicine and with extensive teaching experience.
