Why study at TECH?
The new ILCOR recommendations force us to propose up-to-date training programs that meet the real needs of experienced professionals, in order to incorporate the new criteria in Advanced Life Support techniques"
Cardiorespiratory arrest is one of the leading causes of death in the Western world, and there is sufficient evidence to show that early recognition of the situation, activation and appropriate response of emergency systems, and early initiation of CPR and defibrillation can reduce mortality and its sequelae.
Survival in sudden cardiac arrest is determined by the quality of the scientific evidence supported by international guidelines or recommendations such as that published by the International Liasion Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) in the International Consensus on the Science of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care with Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR).
The syllabus of this Postgraduate Diploma has been designed with the aim of updating professionals' knowledge in Advanced Life Support based on the quality and safety standards of ILCOR, and oriented to the specific training for medical professionals seeking to be up to date in this area.
Make the most of this moment and take the step to get up to date on the ILCOR recommendations for quality performance in cardiorespiratory arrest and the maintenance of life support in the patient"
