This training is the best option you can find to specialize in veterinary cardiology and make more accurate diagnoses" 

Cardiology of Small Animals is a subspecialty of Internal Medicine with a great development in the last decades. The teachers of this postgraduate diploma are at the forefront of the latest diagnostic techniques and treatment of cardiovascular diseases in small animals. Thanks to their specialized training, they have developed a useful, practical program adapted to the current reality, a reality that is becoming more and more demanding.  

This comprehensive program compiles the different cardiovascular diseases affecting small animals. It starts with a solid development of the basics of cardiovascular physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology, so often forgotten and so important and useful in daily clinical practice, followed by the optimization of clinical examination and diagnostic tests, and ending with the latest therapeutic protocols and patient monitoring procedures. 

This training specializes the general practitioner in an area that is increasingly in demand, partly because of its frequency, partly because of the need for specialization that this area demands.   

In all the modules, a gradual exposition of knowledge at the physiological and pathophysiological level has been established, a development of the protocols for approaching patients with cardiovascular diseases with diagnostic and treatment algorithms, as well as the monitoring that should be done in these patients, since many of these diseases are chronic. It compiles the author's experience, without forgetting scientific rigor and the most important updates based on evidence. Develops the diseases, the action protocols and takes into account the patient's integral approach, considering the disease, the patient and the owner in the line of evidence-based medicine.  

All topics incorporate numerous multimedia material: photos, videos and diagrams, so important in a specialty where imaging techniques are of great importance. Finally, as it is an online postgraduate diploma, the students are not conditioned by fixed schedules, nor do they need to move to another physical location. All of the content can be accessed at any time of the day, so you can balance your working or personal life with your academic life.
