Thanks to this 100% online Postgraduate Diploma, you will quickly identify signs of complications, make informed decisions and provide quality care to mothers and babies in high-risk situations”

During pregnancy, the main bleeding problems that can arise are placenta previa, placental abruption and uterine rupture. These complications can result in severe bleeding for both the mother and the fetus, which requires immediate and specialized attention from the nursing staff.

In this way, this Postgraduate Diploma is developed, which will cover a variety of crucial topics for obstetric care. As such, it will delve into the concept of risky pregnancy, focusing on first trimester hemorrhage, such as miscarriage, molar and ectopic pregnancy. In addition, the causes, diagnosis and treatment of these disorders will be examined.

Likewise, the program will cover the syndrome of the placenta and fetal appendages, along with obstetric accidents, highlighting the importance of understanding and acting quickly in the face of these events in order to avoid fatal consequences. Similarly, nurses will be updated on placental problems and umbilical cord pathology, as they play a key role in the early detection of fetal anomalies. 

Finally, the different ways of initiating labor will be analyzed, with emphasis on the protocols for action in cases of births that do not take place normally. The importance of knowing and applying the protocols for pregnant women carrying group B streptococcus during the third trimester of pregnancy will also be addressed, ensuring optimal and safe care. 

In this context, TECH has implemented this comprehensive university program with a 100% online format, so that students will only need an electronic device with an Internet connection to access all teaching resources.

And all of this is based on the revolutionary Relearning methodology, which consists of the repetition of key concepts to optimally assimilate the contents. Moreover, graduates will have access to a series of Masterclasses led by two international experts with extensive experience in the field of Obstetrics. 

Two renowned International Guest Directors will delve into the problems that can arise during pregnancy, through Masterclasses that will be available to students in a 100% online format”
