Get the skills you need thanks to TECH! You'll get up to speed on the management of the Severe Trauma Patient in ICU"

Specialized care for patients with traumatic injuries has become an indispensable requirement in Intensive Care Units (ICU). From admission to discharge, the patient will go through different situations that will require continuous monitoring. Because of this, the preparation and updating of senior healthcare personnel is vital.

Thanks to this postgraduate diploma, the physician will develop advanced competencies in the management of traumatic injuries in particular and challenging contexts. Therefore, protocols for assessment, monitoring and care in critical situations will be analyzed. Professionals will acquire skills in the use of medical devices, medication administration and emotional support for patients and families. They will also learn strategies to prevent complications, manage pain and optimize interprofessional communication.

Likewise, the most current imaging techniques to detect traumatic injuries will be addressed. In fact, the graduate will delve into the interpretation of X-rays, CT and MRI scans to evaluate tissue and organ damage. They will also delve into specific imaging protocols to identify fractures, internal injuries and other serious conditions, including the ethical and safety implications in the use of radiation.

Finally, space will be devoted to trauma in special populations, such as children, the elderly, pregnant women and patients with chronic diseases. Likewise, the student will delve into specific protocols for critical situations, such as natural disasters, armed conflicts and massive traffic accidents. Not to mention triage strategies, resource coordination and interdisciplinary collaboration.

In summary, this program will provide students with a solid theoretical foundation, enabling them to apply it in real situations, thanks to the leadership and support of a distinguished faculty of experts with extensive professional experience.
