You will be able to access the most up-to-date and recent didactic material on Arrhythmias and Devices" 

The different techniques for implantation of pacing devices, as well as the mechanisms themselves, have advanced considerably in recent years. This, in turn, has led to much more detailed and precise monitoring of pathologies such as bradyarrhythmias or the radiological and cardiac anatomy itself, focused on arrhythmias. 

It is for this reason that TECH, along with a group of renowned professionals in the field of cardiology, has developed this postgraduate diploma in Arrhythmias and Devices. The specialist will find a complete and up-to-date syllabus on the most recent advances, combining both the first level practical experience of the entire teaching team with the scientific contents of the first line of research in cardiology. 

All this in the best possible academic offer, offered in a completely online format that respects the priorities and responsibilities of the specialist who takes the course. All the content of the postgraduate diploma is available in the virtual classroom from the beginning of the program, and can be downloaded from any device with an internet connection. This allows the necessary flexibility to combine the academic, professional and personal facets of the specialists, being able to study when, where and how they want. 

You will find extensive topics on pacemakers, ICDs, resynchronizers, diagnostic studies aimed at bradyarrhythmias or cardiac anatomy focused on arrhythmias, among many other useful topics" 

This postgraduate diploma in Arrhythmias and Devices contains the most comprehensive and up-to-date academic program on the market. Its most notable features are:     

• The development of practical cases presented by experts in Cardiology
• The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning
• Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies  
• Theoretical lessons, questions for experts and individual reflection work 
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection 

Get up to date in everything related to Arrhythmias and Devices accompanied by a prestigious teaching staff in the field of cardiology"

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this training program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities. 

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 education programmed to learn in real situations. 

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. This will be done with the help of an innovative system of interactive videos made by renowned experts.
