Thanks to this program you will implement advanced monitoring techniques in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and you will be able to establish surveillance and infection control strategies"

Pediatric Intensive Care is a cornerstone in advanced medical care. According to the World Health Organization, nearly 6 million children under the age of 5 die each year, many from diseases that could be effectively treated in intensive care. In these areas, significant progress has been made in terms of technology, protocols and multidisciplinary approaches. The ICUs are highly equipped, which, together with the specialization of healthcare professionals, favors increasingly precise and personalized care. Likewise, in this field they also focus on emotional and psychological support for patients and their families. As a result, healthcare teams are prepared to deal with complex situations and ensure the overall well-being of all those involved. 

In this sense, TECH has designed this comprehensive program, in which physicians will be able to acquire the most relevant competencies in this area, as well as delve into the latest innovations in technology and treatments. In addition, they will analyze the key differences between pediatric and adult patients in the ICU and the ethical aspects of end-of-life and palliative care decisions. In turn, due to its importance in the recovery of children, they will delve into surveillance strategies and infection control.  

All this, through a 100% online program, which will allow students to prepare through any electronic device with Internet access. In addition, they will be able to benefit from the innovative Relearning methodology, in which TECH is a pioneer in, as well as quality educational content, with multimedia and interactive resources.  They will also benefit from the analysis of real case studies to acquire a comprehensive practical vision.
