The most complete update on Swallowing Disorders in a complete and efficient course”

We begin with the study of the most relevant anatomy and physiology aspects of these regions, as well as their physiological characteristics applied to the swallowing. Aspects related to the pathophysiology of swallowing disorders will be evaluated. The etiological and epidemiological concepts of dysphagia will be discussed. We will cover clinical aspects and complications in swallowing disorders, their clinical and instrumental evaluation, and the most accurate knowledge on therapeutic aspects, all applied to the general ORL in daily practice.

To study the larynx we must know the applied anatomy of the pharynx and larynx, as well as its physiology. The clinical exploration of the larynx includes aspects related to the presence of structural and/or functional alterations, as referred to the three functions of the larynx, by means of techniques that have improved in recent times with endoscopic and computerized imaging systems.

One of the most frequent issues in primary medicine, with all the updates and advances at your fingertips and all in one place”

Efficiency-based learning on the fundamental premise of total flexibility, allowing you to train in a way that is compatible with other occupations”

Our teaching staff is composed of medical professionals, practising specialists. In this way, we ensure that we provide you with the training update we are aiming for. A multidisciplinary team of doctors trained and experienced in different environments, who will develop the theoretical knowledge in an efficient way, but, above all, will put at the service of the course the practical knowledge derived from their own experience: one of the differential qualities of this training.

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodology used in the design of this course. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of e-learning experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. This way, you will be able to study with a range of comfortable and versatile multimedia tools that will give you the operability you need in your training. 

The design of this program is based on Problem-Based Learning: an approach that conceives learning as a highly practical process. To achieve this remotely, we will use telepractice:  with the help of an innovative interactive video system, and learning from an expert, you will be able to acquire the knowledge as if you were actually dealing with the scenario you are learning about. A concept that will allow you to integrate and fix learning in a more realistic and permanent way.

Our innovative telepractice concept will give you the opportunity to learn through an immersive experience, which will provide you with a faster immersion and a much more realistic view of the contents: “learning from an expert”

The objective of this specialization is to allow you to reach a high capacity of intervention in Swallowing Disorders. Through a training created to specialize you in a progressive and constant way, you will get to know and integrate the new developments that have been taking place in this area of intervention. 

If your goal is to take a step toward achieving the highest medical quality, this course is for you: A training program that aspires to excellence”
